Object Tracking Drone

Dec 2025
In Progress

Building a small semi-autonomous drone designed to track people. Inspired by the DJI Neo, it's a compact 2" drone where I'm developing my own flight controller using a Raspberry Pi Zero and Pico. The drone will use computer vision powered by a YOLO model fine-tuned for human detection. The goal is to create an affordable platform that could eventually be turned into a DIY kit or product to share and sell through my social channels.
