24.0626 Created a Youtube playlist for ZiptieAI.
- 24.0619 First successful AI object recognition (of a person) flight test (video) (blog) (wiki page) (Gdrive).
I started the ZiptieAI wiki (and Gdrive**) in early 2024 to organize the detailed instructions and conceptual guidance I was creating for building AI drones (I was updating/rewriting instructions I found in the internet). Since I had no prior experience with drones/AI and I worked without assistance, the wiki has been a very "dynamic" work-in-progress. However, recently the organization and concepts have finally stabilized.
** Note that at this stage the Gdrive docx files are mostly my lab notes. I scoured the internet for any demos I could get working (without assistance), and noted down the (often many) missing details. So these files are sometimes a bit chaotic. I still need to clean up these documents (a big job).
If you want to get started right now building your first drone, then skip to Getting into the air ASAP.
The following is a quick intro to ZiptieAI and this wiki:
Note: There are also 2 websites that are (for now) just (probably out-of-date) placeholders:
- ZiptieAI webpage. A short overview page.
- Docs website. Drone/AI process documentation site. For now this is just a skeleton site (its out-of-date).
