Abstract
In this paper, an ergonomic quadcopter control system for aircraft equipped with MAVLink compatible flight control unit is described. Our system is based on the broadly known Robotic Operating System (ROS) and the Leap Motion Controller. The users control the flight with specific hand gestures detected by the Leap Motion Controller, instead of using the original remote controller. The new control method was tested with a small number of users in an outdoor scenario, and this first round shows promising user feedbacks.
