The Simulink® Support Package for Parrot® Minidrones lets you design and build flight control algorithms for Parrot minidrones. You can deploy algorithms wirelessly over Bluetooth® Low Energy. The algorithms can access onboard sensors—such as the ultrasonic, accelerometer, gyroscope, and air pressure sensors—as well as the downward facing camera.
Simulink add-on tools provide additional capabilities. The support package includes an example based on Aerospace Blockset™ that lets you model 6-DOF equations of motion and simulate aircraft behavior under various flight and environmental conditions. Simulink Coder™ lets you record flight data on the minidrone and access the C code generated from Simulink models.
You can add to existing example models and algorithms to enhance predefined flight controllers or start from scratch and develop new flight control algorithms.
