Jason replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."OK, it looks like you will have to accept friend request before I am allowed to PM you!"
Jason replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."Thanks guys for submitting ideas, unfortunately entries closed for this a couple of months ago and kits have been sent out - see http://www.xmos.com/challenge/ . However your propositions are very interesting. I have sent you all a PM with more…"
Brad Powers replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."Jason,
I'm working on building a neural network based autopilot, one that adapts to varying flight conditions, airframes, etc. in real time. A highly parallel processor like this one could be very interesting for what I'm doing. So,…"
Morli replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."Hey Doug,
That pretty much every thing any one else can say or atleast i can say. If I could add up a layer of complexity ,it would be clustering 2 or more uavs where they can interact with each other, avoid each other by having situation awareness…"

"OK Jason,
Here is your first entry -
Title: Autopilot system for high speed FPV flying wing.
Project Description: XMOS processor will be used as the core processor for a custom autopilot system for a high speed flying wing equipped with First…"
Jason replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."UPDATE:
For those of you who are involved in the XMOS Challenge - we have recently launched a new site XCore Exchange - the site to be when developing projects around the XMOS platform. If you need advice do check it out."
Jason replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."We are on a few sites, though it would be great to get projects in different areas, which is why we found you guys. XMOS will be distributing the available kits across these sites, to the projects XMOS feel are most suitable for our processors, and…"

Jason replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."This is not a traditional challenge like others you may have entered. I am not going to set an official deadline by which you must have your project completed by, this is unreasonable, everyone has different commitments - jobs, college, university,…"
Noth666 replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."What kind of timeframe should these projects be presented within?
I am working on what could only be described as a complete UAV control system (IMU, motor and radios plus tons of sensors) in one integrated system.
I have been considering several…"
Jason replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."Yes you can have external memory and run everything in RAM. I have played around with some of the cards myself and they do not stop working after you use them once!
You only burn to the OTP if you want to for security reasons or such, otherwise the…"
mmormota replied to Jason's discussion Evolve your drones mind with XMOS processors - the XMOS challenge."OTP is a big problem in hobby applications. While OTP is OK in a product, without firmware upgrade it's pretty unusable for hobby experiments.
Is it possible to run the code from RAM and using the OTP just for a bootloader from a serial flash?"

Hi everyone!I was curious to know if anyone would be interested in participating in a challenge to make something AWESOME with a new breed of processor which is particularly great for DSP/networking/USB/motor control type applications or more basic things if that is overkill for what you want.XMOS event driven processors allow you to execute code in parallel which could open up a number of possibilities to evolve your drones "mind" to the next level!I have some development kits to give away…See More
