I am a computer science student and I am more into programming. So for my semester project, our supervisor assigned me and my groupmates the task of developing object detection and tracking software for a drone. And the user should be able to control the selection of which object’s movement needs to be tracked through a mobile app, which we have to develop as well.
PS, I am planning to use the YOLOv8 algorithm.
I have never been into hardware that much, especially drones. Regarding this project, I am planning to buy a DJI Tello Drone which I will keep on testing.
Can anyone help me in guiding whether I should buy DJI Tello or any other drone(that is programmable in Python and doesn’t require much hardware engineering)? Plus, can anyone guide me by providing me with a clear guided approach for such a project?
