Penn Drones is a club at the University of Pennsylvania designed to give students the opportunity to design and build unmanned flying vehicles, such as drones, quadrotors, fixed-wing aircrafts, etc.
The goal of the club is to help students develop knowledge of aeronautics, programming, and robotics while engaging in fun and hands-on projects.
Materials will be provided to all members, and no prior knowledge is required.

Projects
We are considering various projects, such as quadrotors and other fixed-wing aircrafts. We are also considering amphibious vehicles.
For this project, we will work with a YADrone java library to write a program that controls an AR Drone 2.0. Our goals are to use the drone's camera to implement features such as object detection, face recognition, etc. The drone's flight pattern would be modified as a result of the camera's view. No prior experience is necessary.
