DJI Tello test

tello

This repo was created to do some PoCs to place all toghrther: Go, DJI Tello drone, gobot and gocv

/facetracking

This is a simple program that just let the Tello drone detect a face and follow it automatically. You can also control the Tello drone from the keyboard Stack:

Set up

Before starting, you must have installed:

How to run it?

First, connect to the drone's Wi-Fi network from your computer. It will be named something like "TELLO-XXXXXX". Then, run the program: go run ./facetracking/facetracking.go

How it works?

Once program is started it, opens a window where video from the Tello drone will be streamed.

It is also listening for any key pressed on the console to control the drone:

Key Action
1 take off
2 take off by throwing it up
Q land
rotate left
rotate right
go down
⬆︎️ go up
W forward
S Backward
A Left
D Right
T Start / Stop face tracking
B Battery indicator
X Stats (flight data)
Spacebar Hover
ESC Quit Program

So, you need to:

  • run the program
  • then take off (1 or 2)
  • put your face in front of the Tello camera (you should see a rectangle in the video window)
  • then start tracking (T)
  • Move yourself so the drone can follow you (consider slow movements as this program is not optimized yet to support very fast movements)
  • Once you are done, then press T again to let the drone stop tracking
