๐Ÿš Drone Project

Purpose

Aether Scout is designed to assist search and rescue teams by providing aerial reconnaissance and payload delivery capabilities in remote and hazardous environments.

Description

Aether Scout is an unarmed, long-range FPV (First-Person View) drone designed to support first responders and rescue operations. The drone provides live video feed, GPS navigation, and a lightweight medical payload system capable of delivering essential first-aid items when ground teams cannot immediately reach the scene.

This project represents our club's commitment to exploring how engineering and robotics can directly serve public safety and disaster response efforts. Designed for rugged terrain and challenging conditions, Aether Scout aims to extend the reach of rescuers, reduce response times, and help save lives.
