AR.Drone
Parrot produces a very nice quadcopter called "AR.Done"
Homepage: http://ardrone.parrot.com/parrot-ar-drone/usa/
In Vienna you can get them at Mediamarkt & Saturn for 300,- EUR
We plan to make a mesh of flying drones.
FAQ
- how long can it fly?

The Wi-Fi chip seems to have it's own SDIO interface driver. Anyway, the good news for us is, that ad-hoc mode works very well.

OLSRD - HowTo / Build @ Debian 5.0
Add new Source to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://www.emdebian.org/debian/ lenny main
Get new Update´s!
sudo apt-get update
Copy & Paste into Shell:
sudo apt-get install emdebian-archive-keyring libc6-armel-cross libc6-dev-armel-cross binutils-arm-linux-gnueabi gcc-4.3-arm-linux-gnueabi g++-4.3-arm-linux-gnueabi apt-cross dpkg-cross libncurses5-dev sudo apt-get update
Download/Extract Latest STABLE OLSRD Release: (Example)
wget http://www.olsr.org/releases/[VERSION]/olsrd-[VERSION].tar.gz tar xfv olsrd-[VERSION].tar.gz cd olsrd-[VERSION]
Edit Makefile.inc:
vi Makefile.inc
Press [ i ]
CC=arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.3
Press [ ESC ] & type [ :wq ] & PRESS ENTER
Compile OLSRD:
make make libs
Now olsrd is Compiled and ready for AR.Drone!
Copy Compiled OLSRD to AR.Drone
You need:
- Laptop with Wireless LAN
- Local Webserver (MacOS X has one ;)
- Compiled OLSR Binary´s (Plugin´s, OLSRD)
- Connect your Laptop with AR.Drone
- Wait few seconds for IP (192.168.1.2)
- Open a shell window and telnet into AR.Drone
telnet 192.168.1.1
- Lets create some Folder´s on AR.Drone
mkdir /data/apps mkdir /data/apps/etc mkdir /data/apps/lib mkdir /data/apps/init.d mkdir /var/run
- Copy OLSRD Binary
cd /data/apps wget http://192.168.1.2/~[USERNAME]/olsrd ln -s /data/apps/olsrd /bin/olsrd chmod 777 /bin/olsrd
- Copy OLSRD_LIB´s
cd /data/apps/lib wget http://192.168.1.2/~[USERNAME]/olsrd_txtinfo.so.0.1 wget http://192.168.1.2/~[USERNAME]/olsrd_httpinfo.so.0.1 wget http://192.168.1.2/~[USERNAME]/olsrd_watchdog.so.0.1 ln -s /data/apps/lib/olsrd_txtinfo.so.0.1 /lib/olsrd_txtinfo.so.0.1 ln -s /data/apps/lib/olsrd_httpinfo.so.0.1 /lib/olsrd_httpinfo.so.0.1 ln -s /data/apps/lib/olsrd_watchdog.so.0.1 /lib/olsrd_watchdog.so.0.1
OLSRD Configuration and FunkFeuer Setup
(!) DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK / BE CAREFUL (!)

- Create startupfile with IP/BSSID/ESSID... Setting´s
vi /data/apps/init.d/olsr.sh
Press [ i ] / Copy & Paste
#!/bin/sh # kill all olsrd/httpd sessions and delete lock file... # we can use this script to do restart´s killall olsrd rm /var/run/olsrd-ipv4.lock # ready to setup wireless interface switch to adhoc, bssid, essid ifconfig ath0 down iwconfig ath0 mode ad-hoc iwconfig ath0 channel [CHAN.NR.] iwconfig ath0 ap [BSSID] iwconfig ath0 essid [ESSID] #ardrone.freiesnetz.funkfeuer.at looks nice ifconfig ath0 [IP] netmask [NETMASK] up ifconfig ath0:1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up # be Save ;-) olsrd
Press [ ESC ] andy type [ :wq ].
ln -s /data/apps/init.d/olsr.sh /etc/init.d/olsr.sh chmod 777 /etc/init.d/olsr.sh
- Now you can test your OLSRD AR.Drone with
/etc/init.d/olsr.sh
it look´s like
# /etc/init.d/olsr.sh *** olsr.org - 0.6.0 *** Build date: 2010-11-11 21:14:10 on server1.paua.at http://www.olsr.org Parsing file: "/etc/olsrd.conf" Debug level: 0 IpVersion: 4 Noint set to 1 FIBMetric: flat Pollrate 0.03 RtProto: 111 TC redundancy 2 Willingness: 7 MPR coverage 7 Link quality fish eye 0 LQ Algorithm: etx_ff Link quality level 2 Hysteresis disabled Plugin: olsrd_txtinfo.so.0.1 Plugin param key:"Port" val: "2006" Plugin param key:"Accept" val: "127.0.0.1" Plugin: olsrd_httpinfo.so.0.1 Plugin param key:"Net" val: "0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0" Plugin param key:"port" val: "8000" Plugin: olsrd_watchdog.so.0.1 Plugin param key:"file" val: "/tmp/0xffolsr_watchdog" Plugin param key:"interval" val: "50" setting ifs_in_curr_cfg = 0 Mode: mesh HELLO interval: 5.00 HELLO validity: 100.00 TC interval: 3.00 TC validity: 500.00 MID interval: 30.00 MID validity: 500.00 HNA interval: 30.00 HNA validity: 500.00 IPv4 broadcast: 255.255.255.255 Interface Defaults IPv4 broadcast/multicast : 255.255.255.255 Mode : mesh (d) IPv6 multicast : ff02::6d HELLO emission/validity : 5.00 (d)/100.00 (d) TC emission/validity : 3.00 (d)/500.00 (d) MID emission/validity : 30.00 (d)/500.00 (d) HNA emission/validity : 30.00 (d)/500.00 (d) Autodetect changes : yes IPv4 broadcast/multicast : AUTO Mode : mesh (d) IPv6 multicast : :: HELLO emission/validity : 0.00/0.00 TC emission/validity : 0.00/0.00 MID emission/validity : 0.00/0.00 HNA emission/validity : 0.00/0.00 Autodetect changes : no olsr.org - 0.6.0 detaching from the current process... #
- if that work´s you can go to the next Step´s...
- Modify /etc/init.d/rcS (be careful)
vi /etc/init.d/rcS
goto line 48/49 it looks like
... .. . modprobe p6_sdhci /bin/wifi_setup.sh
Press [ i ], make a new line after /bin/wifi_setup.sh and Paste
/etc/init.d/olsr.sh iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 23 -s 193.238.156.0/22 -j ACCEPT #Funkfeuer iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 23 -s 78.41.112.0/21 -j ACCEPT #Funkfeuer iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 23 -j DROP
goto the end of the file and Paste one more
/etc/init.d/olsr.sh
Press [ ESC ] andy type [ :wq ].
- Now you are finished and reboot your device for the first run with olsr, open your Browser http://[IP]:8000 and you can see the OLSR Status Page
