Development of a semi-autonomous flying wing

Leteće krilo predstavlja jednu od najnaprednijih letjelica. Razvoj ove letjelice ne bi bio moguć bez paralelnog značajnog napretka više grana znanosti – od razvoja informatičke tehnologije do naprednih tehnologija. Ovaj rad je napravljen sa svrhom da služi kao baza (razvojna platforma) budućim studentima za edukaciju te pruža dodatnu mogućnost razvoja vršenjem eksperimenata na ovakvoj robotskoj platformi u budućnosti. To podrazumijeva mijenjanje komponenata od same konstrukcije letećeg krila do programske opreme te računalne sklopovne podrške ili nošenje dodatne senzorike koja bi omogućila uspješno izvođenje raznih misija (djelovanja). U praktičnom dijelu rada odabrane su komponente za izradu fizičkog modela letećeg krila te obavljeno njegovo sastavljanje i testiranje. Sa izrađenim modelom moguće je upravljati manualno no moguće mu je i zadavati samostalne misije pomoću softvera za autonoman let.The flying wing represents one of the most advanced aircrafts. The development of this aircraft would not be possible without the parallel significant advances in several branches of science - from the development of information technology to advanced technologies. This work is designed to serve as a platform for future students for education and provides additional development opportunities for conducting experiments on this robotic platform in the future. This involves changing components from the wing design itself to the programming equipment, computer hardware support, or carrying additional sensors that would allow successful performance of various missions. In the practical part of the work, components were selected for the assembly of the physical model of the flying wing as well as its testing. It is possible to manage the aircraft manually but it is also possible to set up autonomous missions using autonomous flight software
