Abstract

SkyWarden is an alert and notification system for aerial drones which issues real-time alerts to the drone operators in the Autonomous Robots Laboratory at UNR. Drone battery voltage levels, as well as drone proximity to external obstacles, are monitored by way of sensors on-board the drone. The alert and notification system issues visual and audible warnings to the operator whenever thresholds for each monitored attribute are exceeded. The alerts are issued through both hardware a graphical user interface, and the data is streamed over the network through ROS. Additionally, the system allows for up to eight generic alerts to be added by the operator. The objective of this document is to detail the use cases and functional requirements which have been implemented upon completion of the project, to describe the few which have not been implemented, and to provide a summary of the software modules which comprise the various subsystems of ADNS. The full documentation of the three major subsystems of ADNS is also included.
