What is a thermal mapping drone (TMD?)
Remote controlled quadcopter that will record and display a thermal image of the area that it has flown
over
4ECE Department
What’s already out there?
5ECE Department
What makes ours different?
Remote controlled (user friendly)• User can map a wide range of areas
Cost effective• Stitching multiple thermal images together
will allow a larger map to be generated without expensive equipment (i.e. satellites, high res thermal camera)
6ECE Department
Possible Applications
Homes Forests Oceans Search and Rescue Agriculture Glaciers
7ECE Department
Focus (Home Map)
Allow user to generate a thermal map of their home’s exterior
Data will be transmitted to and processed on their computer order to analyze IR sensor’s readings
Users can discover areas where heat escapes
8ECE Department
How significant is the problem?
In New England average winter cost of heating $1400 last year.
Expected to continue to rise 10-20% home energy wasted through leak

12ECE Department
Requirement Analysis – Technical Specifications Stable flight using feedback controls for the Quadcopter
using Arduino microcontroller and 9 degree freedom sensor (that includes: accelerometer, gyroscope & magnetometer)
High Precision Infra-red Sensor MLX90620 that outputs temperature data in 16x4 pixel array
Data Transmission Via radio from IR-sensor mounted on the Drone to a receiver at the user’s GUI site
Web application with software to convert the data from the IR-sensor into a thermal map
13ECE Department
Design Alternatives
• GPS add on• Inter-Drone communication• Video camera• Programmable flight path
