Preparation

Estimated Time Cost: 20~40min.

Connect to our Wifi ELE115-TELLO. Ask the TA for password. NEVER share Wifi password(s) with anybody. Setup environment if your haven't done so.

Part I: Hello Java

Estimated Time Cost: 10min.

  1. Read the whole FAQ.
  2. Accept the GitHub Classroom assignment. See Canvas for the link.
  3. Follow the guide to create a new project. Name your project as lab1-hello-java.

Note: You MUST follow the guide to create new projects. Do not try to setup a new project on your own.

Write your code now. Your project shall do (and only do) the following:

  • Write Hello Java on the screen
  • Exit afterwards
  1. Hit Shift+F10 to confirm the correctness of your program. Fix problems and retry until success.
  2. Once finished, show your Hello Java result to the TA.
  3. Follow the Guide on submitting projects to GitHub.
  4. Proceed to Part II.

Part II: Hello Robot

Estimated Time Cost: 20min.

  1. Accept the GitHub Classroom assignment. See Canvas for the link.
  2. Get one Tello drone from the TA.
  3. Confirm the content of your drone case:
  • Tello drone x 1, with four propellers and four propeller guards
  • Boards * 4
  • Setup guide x 1
  • User manual x 1
  • Micro USB Cable x 1
  • A small bag containing:
    • Replacement propellers x 4
    • Propeller replacement tool x 1
  1. Find your drone Id. It is a 6-characters string located on the inner surface of the drone. Confirm that the drone Id is identical to the drone Id labeled on the case.
  2. Put some stickers on your drone. Be sure NOT to cover the heat sink at the bottom.
  3. Optionally replace your propeller guards with fancier one(s).
  4. Confirm with the TA that the drone Id is correct and nothing is missing from the drone case.
  5. Get one battery from the TA.

Create another project lab1-hello-robot. Code your project to do the following:

  • Connect to your drone, which should be placed at the blue cross on the floor.
  • Let your drone takeoff
  • Let your drone fly to the green cross.
  • Let your drone land at the green cross.
  • Exit afterwards

Note: Distance between the two cross is approximately 350 centimeters.

Note: You don't have to land exactly at the green cross. Anywhere around the cross is acceptable.

To confirm the correctness of your program, you need to do the following:

  1. Power on your drone.
  2. Put your drone at the blue cross on the floor.
  3. Hit Shift+F10.
  4. Collect your drone when it fully stops. Do NEVER touch a flying drone.

If you think your program is correct proceed to the following:

  1. Show your program result (actual drone actually flying) to the TA.
  2. Remove the battery from your drone.
  3. Pack your drone, with one battery, in your drone case. Always double check your drone Id.
  4. Follow the Guide on submitting projects to GitHub.
