Writing program for bebop autonomy? #83

Closed kenisvery closed 7 years ago

kenisvery commented 7 years ago

Hi,

Is it possible to write or add a program/ code to bebop autonomy that command the bebop drone to do a sequence of movement (forward, backward, left, right then flip). Is it possible to write in python programming and interface with ROS? Is there any sample?

It should be do-able and quite straightforward (at least in an open-loop manner). I suggest that you follow the ROS tutorials and make yourself familiar with the ROS Python API. You can publish a series of commands from a Python node (Tutorial 13) to the Bebop driver to achieve what you are aiming for.
