AI-deck and P2P
Posted: Wed Aug 04, 2021 10:28 am
Hi.
I am working with Crazyflies, and my setup is the following: Loco position system and a couple of Crazyflies with loco decks and AI-decks. My goal is to work with swarms, make collision-free algorithms, etc. I have implemented a centralized system running on Python with multiple Crazyflie with loco deck and tested potential field path planning algorithms with that system. Still, I am curious to investigate fully distributed systems. For example, two CFs start from points A and B, and they have to go to each other starting positions without colliding. Currently, communication is via Crazyradio, and the code is written in Python and run on my laptop. But I want to drop out the laptop so that CFs talk to each other and calculations are made onboard.
AI-deck provides lots of calculating power and WIFI module. Does it make any sense to try to develop p2p communication between Crazyflies using AI-deck’s WIFI? And is that even possible or reasonable to change the centralized system to distributed using AI-deck?
