Construção de um drone e estudos de parâmetros

Abstract

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as Drones, have been gaining more and more space in various areas of society. The development of a UAV encompasses a wide range of knowledge from Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering, as well as the notion of remote control, sensing and electronics, resulting in a multidisciplinary project. In this specific project, the drone is broken down into its essential elements, such as structure, motors, propellers, speed drivers, flight driver, batteries, sensors and communication system, each being thoroughly tested, evaluated and specified for integration into a cohesive system. Simulation tools and design software were used to estimate the main characteristics of the product. The main objective of this project is to serve as a comprehensive reference for future drone-related work, spanning from the initial design phase and specifications to component selection and integration. Within the context of recent technological advances, work with UAVs represents the state of the art in mobile robotics, especially in the field of aerial robots. The expectation is that this project will also act as a practical guide for the physical manufacture of drones of this type, providing a source of reference resources and guidelines to be followed. This approach has the potential to be applied to research in different areas, becoming a valuable tool of great utility and added value.
