 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We would like to express our special thanks of gratitude to the Computer Department Faculty,
who gave us the golden opportunity to do this Project.

We wish to express our profound thanks to our guide, Prof. R. R. Badre for her support, the
valuable time that she spent with us, discussing our project ideas.

We also want to thank our director Dr.Yogesh Bhalerao for providing us with the basic
infrastructure and other facilities.

 ABSTRACT

The primary objective of Multi-purpose Drone is to help the people to get access to the places
where humans can’t reach or to see things through the camera which is not possible to access by
humans. This product can mainly be used by our army in order to get access or to see places
which are difficult to access physically. Many soldiers lose their lives and our nation lost many
brace soldiers in the recent attacks because they didn’t see further about what was coming to
them. We might have not lost our soldiers in the recent attacks if they would have been able to
see the roads on which they’re travelling when they were far behind from that spot. The Drone‘s
here can fly up to a very high altitude which enhances its features. It is named as multi-purpose
Drone because if we add the pick and the drop technique in this then this drone can be used for
delivery process of medicines and all. The camera attached to this drone also helps it in spying
the places beyond the reach of the naked eyes of human.

 1.INTRODUCTION

1.1 Motivation

When we usually see the news and see thousands of people losing their lives not
because it’s their fault but because of the small things that are beyond their control
and hence consequence as losing their valuable lives. This also include the
precious lives of our soldiers that are living their lives in such despise for
ourselves. The statistics over the past few years has motivated us the most about
the idea of this drone. If our people can have access to the places which were
earlier not possible for going then there will surely be a chance for the
improvement in the existing technology used by our army.

1.2 Objective and scope

 The objective of the project is to provide a platform for soldiers where they
can have access to the places that was earlier not possible and also to see
lands which are at high altitude.

 The objective and scope of the project is to familiarize DRDO and Indian
Army with the new technology and advancement so they can get best of it.

1.3 Problem statement

Our problem system is to develop a system that gives us a clear vision of places
which are difficult to access and if added pick and drop system then can also be
used for delivery purpose of medicines.
2) Case study :

1) As with employing drone technology to study coral reefs, environmentalists

have turned to drones for reforestation because it is cheaper and more efficient than
their previous methods. Reforestation companies estimate that a single drone has
the potential to plant 100,000 trees per day, with one drone engineer able to
oversee six drones.

DroneSeed, a company based in Seattle, WA, claims to have the “first FAA-
approved swarms for spraying.” This company uses drones to plant seeds, deliver
water, and spray herbicides and fertilizers for the trees.

DroneSeed is not the only company or organization focused on reforestation using

drones. BioCarbon Engineering and the Worldview International Foundation, a
nonprofit, worked in Myanmar last year to replant the mangroves that the area
relies on for protection from hurricanes and providing a habitat for fish. Using
the drones, the WIF planted approximately 1 million hectares of mangroves. The
Foundation uses the drones to map the area, determine soil quality, identify the
best locations for planting trees, and establish which trees to plant. Then another
group of drones disperses the seeds forcefully to ensure the seeds take root.

2) Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs)

MAVs are primarily being explored as mission capable flight systems for military surveillance
and reconnaissance applications. MAVs are classified as UAVs with the dimension of the
vehicle not exceeding 15 cm.

Honeywell is currently flight testing a new 13-inch autonomous MAV surveillance aircraft that a
foot soldier can carry on his back. The primary purpose of the MAV is to provide intelligence on
enemy activity without risking the lives of human pilots or ground reconnaissance teams.
Honeywell is developing the MAV for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
(DARPA) as part of its Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration (ACTD) program.

Called a ducted fan air vehicle, the MAV flies like a helicopter, using a propeller that draws in
air through a duct to provide lift. The MAV's propeller is enclosed in the duct and is driven by a
gasoline engine. A heavy fuel engine variant of the MAV will be available in 2006.

The MAV is controlled using Honeywell's MEMS electronic sensor technology. The micro air
vehicle may become part of the U.S. Army's Future Combat Systems program as the "hover and
stare" Class I Unmanned Aerial Vehicle System. Honeywell is the prime contractor developing
the MAV along with subcontractors AAI Corp. for the airframe, AVID for modeling and
simulation and Techsburg for testing and acoustics.

3) Organic Air Vehicles (OAVs)
OAVs are designed to operate from the battlefield by field troops and provide small combat
teams and individual soldiers with the capability to detect the enemy forces concealed in forests
or hills, around buildings in urban areas or in places where the shooter does not have a direct
line-of-sight.

OAVs can hover and stare, and essentially become sentinels for maneuvering troops. Rather than
sending a soldier into harm's way to scout a particularly potential high-risk area, a unit will be
able to use the OAV instead. Typical OAV missions include reconnaissance and surveillance,
path finding for friendly ground vehicles (both robotics and manned), maneuver force protection,
and targeting for non-line-of-sight fire operations.

Honeywell is creating lightweight integrated avionics developed for OAVs as a common core
avionics package and vetronics mobility package for UAVs and UGVs. This common electronics
and software package can be applied to small, unmanned air vehicles, but also can be used on
conventionally winged as well as Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) vehicles and the
soldier UGV. It also has the potential of being used as the mobility control for the larger MULE
UGV. This lightweight (1.5 lb.) core integrated avionics suite from the OAV shares its principal
components with large quantity artillery projectiles.

The OAV's core package consists of a MEMS inertial measurement system, a GPS receiver and
a flight management unit processor that:
Integrate GPS and inertial data for position and attitude information

Run Honeywell’s MACH flight control laws

Generate outputs to control servos

Perform payload management and coordinate communications content and usage

This project is based on mostly the circuit part of the system.

1 Circuit :
 The flight controller controls the altitude and the other aspect such as time of
flight for the drone.
 The camera provides a better and a clear version on the sights.
 Arduino is used for the assemblance of sensors.

 550mah 3s lipo battery supports the flight controller.
