I was wondering if there is any way I can use these cheap sensors for obstacle avoidance with a Raspberry Pi and Dronekit. I know this can be done relatively easily with the RC inputs first fed into a on-board Arduino UNO and then sending a MAVLink message every second.
But, I also want to do some image recognition with RPi, therefore I am trying to incorporate both the Obstacle Avoidance and Image Recognition with RPi. It will save me space, battery consumption, excess weight of two boards on the drone and most importantly, a Telemetry Port on PIXHawk.
