Introduction

Founder of Centeye, a fabless semiconductor / robotics company that specializes in "artificial insect eyes" for "micro drones"

What's your experience working with drones? Beginners are welcome!

I've been working on drone-related autonomous technology since 1996

What kind of equipment do you own/operate (ArduCopter 3DR Hexacopter, Swinglet, Parot AR, etc...) You don't need to have your own equipment to join the group.

Lots of hacked stuff. Been using coaxials in the past but moving towards quads

  • Hey Geoff! Thanks for joining. Hope you'll be able to make it out to join us. P.S. I recommended your Hardware meetup to an entrepreneur the other day. Hopefully he'll actually check it out!

  • Geoffrey
    Yes I think we had a good first group. I hope this group can grow. Also
    please mention the meetup name as the meetup messenger will only send your comments. I get a lot of comments from meetups and it is often hard to tell where and at what meetup, I talked to someone.

    “Hi Doug- Thanks for coming to the meetup! I'm thinking we should have the next meetup either in VA or MD, near parking! :) I like the salon format- what do you think would be a good topics for discussion?”

  • Thanks Geoffrey! I'm excited to come, but I'm sorry that I won't be much help on the engineering side. I just got an amp to install in my car and am living in fear of somehow turning it into a giant ball of fire. But I did manage to build a makerbot, so I'm not totally useless.

  • Hi Geoff, I fly RC and just got started with arduino. I'm currently working on an IMU controlled tricopter. I'm interested in the possibilities of Ardueye stabilization and optical flow in general. Keep up the amazing work.
