Organization
The group composition, deliverables, milestones, planning and task division can be found on the organization page.
Brainstorm
To explore possible subjects for this project, a brainstorm session was held. Out of the various ideas, the Follow-Me Drone was chosen to be our subject of focus.
Problem Statement
Here we will discuss the final problem we are solving.
User
Society
Enterprise
Approach
In order to get to a feasible design solution, we will do research on following fields:
- Topographical Disorientation disorder. We will be answering following questions:
- Which daily-life tasks are affected by Topographical Disorientation?
- How many people are affected by Topographical Disorientation?
- How does one reach the people suffering from Topographical Disorientation?
- Human interaction. We will be answering following questions:
- What is the optimal height and distance for the drone to be away from the user? Here we will also consider operation indoors in e.g. a university building and outdoors e.g. in traffic.
- How will the drone communicate with the user (e.g. when the user should turn left or right / when the battery is low)?
- How will the user recognize their drone if there are multiple drones?
- Non-technical aspects of drones.
- What is the legal status of drones in The Netherlands?
- Technical aspects of drones. We will be answering following questions:
- How does the drone fly?
- How can we ensure that the drone can operate long enough?
- How much electricity does it take to fly?
- What is the current state of the art w.r.t. battery capacity for batteries that can be used in drones?
- What are possible charging techniques?
- Will the drone operate in extreme weather conditions? If so, how?
- Software aspects of drones. We will be answering following questions:
- How will the drone navigate from point A to B?
- Which pathfinding technique is the best one to be used?
- How will the drone avoid obstacles in its path?
- How will the drone account for live changes (e.g. in traffic)?
- How can the drone keep an appropriate distance from the user, whilst still remaining visible at all times?
- How will the drone navigate from point A to B?
After finding an answer to these questions, we will have a basis for our design, and can rapidly create it, while documenting our decisions.
As for the simulation, we will do the following:
- Research on which software to use.
- Implementation of the simulation.
Solution
Here we discuss our solution. If it exists of multiple types of sub-problems that we defined in the problem statement section, then use separater sections (placeholders for now).

Simulation
A section for a simulation if we want one.
Conclusion
