Hello,
I am kind of new to drones, especially advanced ones. I have flown a few amateur, if you will, drones but nothing fancy. I am looking for advice on a specific task that I'm trying to achieve and I think drones will be extremely useful. I am trying to use a drone to fly over a predetermined area, and have the drone pick up signals from RFID tags and report the location of multiple tags placed randomly in that area. Ideally, I'd pre-plan the path of the drone, have it fly over the space whilst picking up the signals and return to the base. I'm really interested in autopilot and GPS/GLONASS or something of that sort. The ability to capture images/video is a plus and getting it to report both the location of the tag and a picture of its location would be great. The area is relatively clear of trees/objects and the drone would be flying at approximately 14 feet.
I think its important to note that budget is not an issue however, I'd like to get my money's worth with what I get. Also, I'd rather not get into any coding/software details and buy packages/features/applications if necessary. Please advise as to what setup you guys think would work best for my situation.
Thank you,
Your help is much appreciated!
