Ama-Drones ayamangalisa. Ungazisebenzisa ukuze uthole izithombe ezinhle zekhamera, uhlole omakhelwane bakho, futhi... uwise izinto eziyingozi phansi?! Yebo, u-Alex Apollonov Ngenze Into ibuyele kuyo futhi. Lapho ebeka izandla zakhe kundiza yakhe, umcabango wokuqala owafika engqondweni yakhe kwaba ukuthi: “Ngingakwazi yini ukuwisa imicibisholo yababulali ngisebenzisa lokhu?”
Ukwenza Imicibisholo
Imicibisholo yathatha ugqozi ezinjeni ezivilaphayo - ama-kinetic projectiles amancane asetshenziswa yi-US phakathi nezimpi zaseKorea naseVietnam. U-Alex wenza imicibisholo yakhe yasekhaya ngensimbi ye-carbon steel eqinile engu-1045. Ngemva kokulolonga imicibisholo enobukhulu obuhlukahlukene endaweni yakhe, washisela amaphiko aqinile ukuze awehlise ngokunembe kakhudlwana. Wabuye washisela izingwegwe ekupheleni kwalezi zimpiko, ezazizosiza engxenyeni elandelayo yomsebenzi wakhe.
I-Dropping Mechanism
Awukwazi ukuwisa mathupha umcibisholo ophuma endizeni eyindiza engenandiza ngenkathi izulazula amamitha ayikhulu ngaphezu komhlaba, ngakho u-Alex waphinda wasebenzisa ikhodi ethile ayithole ku-inthanethi futhi wayifaka kusilawuli esincane se-Arduino.
Uma kuhlanganiswe ne-servo motor kanye nenzwa yokukhanya, isilawuli esincane sivula ihuku noma nini lapho ukukhanya kwe-drone kukhanya endaweni ethile. Lokhu kwenze konke kwaba lula ku-Alex njengoba kungaba nje ukukhanyisa isibani se-drone ukuze awise imicibisholo yakhe.
Ngemuva kokwenza izinto zibe zincane futhi zizigcine kumbeleko ophrintwe nge-3D, indiza yakhe eyi-dart yayibukeka isolisa kakhulu ngakho konke ukuguqulwa okusha.
Indlela Yokuqondisa I-Drone ye-Dart
Zonke lezi zinhlamvu zingase zimosheke uma ungakwazi ukushaya lutho ngazo, ngakho u-Alex wacabanga izindlela eziningi zokwenza ukuthi indiza yakhe idedele imicibisholo ngendlela efanele.
Waqale wabheka kuma-laser kodwa wabe esecabanga kabili ngemva kokucishe aziphuphuthekise. Ilaser yayingeke ibonakale ngokwanele ezindaweni eziphakeme u-Alex ayehlela ukuphonsa kuzo imicibisholo yakhe. Leyo mibono isanda kwenza iphrojekthi yakhe yaba inkimbinkimbi, ngakho-ke waphendukela esixazululweni esiqonde kakhudlwana: i-GPS ye-drone's onboard.
Isikhathi Sokulahla Eminye Imicibisholo
Njengoba i-drone yakhe isiqediwe, u-Alex uzame ukuthola abanye ababhalisile be-Twitter ababengavuma ukumvumela ukuba alahle imicibisholo endaweni yabo. Ngemva kokuyithola, wathatha indiza yakhe yafinyelela ku-25-, 50-, kanye namamitha angu-100 ubude waqala ukuwisa imicibisholo yakhe yasekhaya.
Imicibisholo yaya ngokuya ingalungile njengoba indiza isuka phansi, njengoba ubungalindela. Kodwa noma nini lapho enye yalezi zinto ifika uphawu, yenza umonakalo othile.
Lapho lehla lisuka kumamitha angu-50, i-dart yangena ophahleni lwemoto. Ayihambanga yonke le ndawo njengoba ezinye indwangu beziyivimbile ukuthi ingashayisi abebezogibela imoto.
Ukuyithatha ifike kumamitha ayi-100 bekuyingozi kakhulu. Ayigcinanga nje ngokuphihliza iwindi langemuva, kodwa iphinde yacwila ohlakeni lwemoto yangakwazi ukususwa ngesandla.
Kwakunzima kakhulu ukukhomba imicibisholo ngokunembayo endaweni ephakeme kangako, kodwa ukuhlola okwengeziwe kwafakazela ukuthi la ma-projectile ensimbi angaba yingozi kangakanani. U-Alex walahla omunye umcibisholo efasiteleni langaphambili, maqede wabhodloza ingilazi washona phansi emotweni. Uma lokhu kuwela ekhanda lakho ngenkathi ushayela, ngeke ufe kuphela, kodwa imoto engenamuntu izodala umonakalo kwabahamba ngezinyawo nabanye abashayeli.
Ngakho-ke usunakho. Ungakwazi ukuhlomisa i-drone yakho ngemicibisholo yensimbi esindayo futhi uyiwise kwabadlulayo, kodwa lokho kungakubeka njengengozi emphakathini. Induku ehamba phambili ejabulela inhloso yayo yasekuqaleni: ukuthatha isibhamu esihle kakhulu se-drone.
