E2.03 - TXST Thunderbirds

Drone's Predictive Maintenance for Drone Fleet.

TXST Thunderbirds

Drones have been successfully incorporated into many fields, from aerial pictures to making deliveries to conducting surveillance, among others. Our major concern is safety. This project continues the work from the previous Airogistic team, focusing on predictive maintenance in monitoring the drone’s essential hardware so that it does not fail while airborne. We, TXST Thunderbirds, working together with IE, and MFGE teams, will monitor the drone’s components by measuring temperature, force, sound, and RPMs in a Robotics Operating System (ROS) environment. The data collected will be used for longitudinal analysis to optimize utilization over time while keeping the skies safe now.
