Global course of activities:
- Assembly of the drone,
- Installing required software
- Discussing the initial planning
- Trial and error up to ability to steer with controller
- Setting up the hover function on the drone
Division of workforce
- Drone flying: Jake and Joyce
- Imagery: Wolff and Alvaro
- Group management: Wolff
Action points
- Jake and Joyce: getting a further understanding of the software and making a start with computer controlled flying (python).
- Wolff and Alvaro: each researching 5 camera’s for on the drone and giving a summary of the specs.
- Wolff: redefine the overall planning, set up a doodle for a second weekly meeting
Focus points
- Thinking about the end goal and intermediate goals, then think about the most favorable approach to tackle these goals (approach meant as for instance difference between following the ball or following a robot).
- Defining the constraints and requirements to reach the goals.
- Setting specific goals to present progress.

Subjects of discussion
- Selecting the camera for on the drone
- Flight time
- Sensors on the drone
- Setting up the wiki page
- Making a better planning
Camera
Specs to look for when selecting camera are resolution, size weight, frame rate and consitency of frame rate. Also make some simple make calculations to for instance defend the chosen resolution. The communication and power supply of the camera should also be invested.
Flight time and sensors For the flight time there are decisions to be made concerning the size of the drone and weight of the compartments. Another thing to focus on is being able to access the data from the sensors on the drone within the python code.
Setting up the wiki page The wiki page can be personalized to show our progress, goals and other importand things. An idea for a page was a videolog showing the progression. There were some problems setting up the page but the syntax can be found on google.
Improving the planning For the planning it is first important to think about how to approach the problem of making a drone referee, for doing this it is also good to think about which football rules are good to implement. After having a general idea of this approach, it can be split into smaller goals which can be set for certain dates. For showing the progress of the project it is useful to have evaluations where the team gives shows, this also helps in setting very specific goals such as for this date we want to have the drone fly a specific script.

Subjects of discussion
- Decision of following the ball with the drone
- Usage of potential field
- Giving commands to drone from computer in real time
- Selection of the camera
- Personal development plan deadline next friday
- Giving a presentation of at 31-10-2019
Following the ball The endgoal of having the drone autonomously follow the ball has been split in a lot of subgoals divided itnot primary, secondary and final goals.
