The Crazyflie 2.X-Flow V2 Deck w/ TOF Sensor, Optical Flow, GPS Module is an advanced add-on board designed for the Crazyflie 2.1 drone, enhancing its capabilities for stable indoor flight. This deck integrates optical flow and time-of-flight (TOF) sensors, which provide precise control and stability in environments where GPS signals are unreliable or absent.
The optical flow sensor utilizes a downward-facing camera to track movement relative to the ground, ensuring accurate navigation by detecting visual features. Complementing this, the VL53L1x TOF sensor measures the distance to the ground, offering precise altitude control. These features collectively enable the drone to maintain a stable flight path, making it an invaluable tool for researchers, developers, and drone enthusiasts exploring indoor drone applications.
Designed for seamless integration, the deck offers plug-and-play connectivity with the Crazyflie 2.1 drone, requiring no additional software for operation. Its compact and lightweight design makes it suitable for use in confined indoor spaces, while the open-source software and firmware allow for extensive customization and modification to suit specific needs.
