Transmitting GPS as text form through wireless on drone 2.0

Ar drone 2.0 is a miniature unmanned aerial vehicle used in the field of research. ar drone 2.0 has a camera and imu sensors,so it can be used to get visual data from air which hardly done by human. unmanned aerial vehicle requires gps (global positioning system) so that the pilot can control it remotely as well as to support automatic fly without pilot. while gps data are supported by ar drone 2.0 it still needs data conversion process due to the difference in data protocol which is used between the drone and the gps. this conversion process required processor or controller to process the data. integration of gps with ar drone using controller also allows drone to run for automatic control. in addition,gps data will also be sent information of latitude and longitude to computer so that the pilot can determine the current position when ar drone is flying. the gps system used for this design can be developed further in the future because it is open source. © 2016 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
