overview
project pluto is an ai co-pilot for drones that helps soldiers fly smarter missions without the tech headache. built for defence applications, it transforms complex drone operations into simple voice commands.
key features
- voice commands: talk to your drone naturally - "scan this area", "fly to that hill"
- ai path planning: automatic coverage path generation for surveillance missions
- waypoint generation: instant waypoint creation from natural language
- ardupilot integration: works with existing ardupilot systems
- simulation support: test in gazebo before real-world deployment
how it works
in pluto, you can literally talk to the drone. the ai processes your natural language commands and translates them into precise flight instructions.
example commands
- "scan this area" → builds an optimal coverage path
- "take off and fly to that hill" → creates instant waypoints
- "return to base" → executes safe return sequence
- "hover and observe" → maintains position for surveillance
technical specifications
- platform: ardupilot (px4 support coming soon)
- interface: web-based dashboard with mobile support
- ai model: custom trained for drone operations
- communication: mavlink protocol
- simulation: gazebo integration for testing
what's next
- efficient output optimization
- offline ai models for field operations
- advanced object detection capabilities
- fpv drone integration
- enhanced voice recognition
