The iDrone Academy consists of a series of short and intensive courses in different areas of Robotics, specifically in the development of intelligent flying robots. This academy is addressed to students of elementary and secondary education and is based on the work developed by the courses of Degree and Masters in Electrical Engineering and Computers of the EST.
During the Easter holidays, students enter the EST universe and are trained in each of the areas necessary for the development of intelligent tasks by flying robots, namely programming, control, computer vision, image processing and navigation.
The iDrone Academy is linked to iDroneCup, a pedagogical component of the iDrone Experience, the largest national event in the area of drones, organized by the IPCA, in partnership with the Braga City Council, AIMinho and Invest Braga, which runs from 22 to 24 April, in the Exhibition Park of Braga.
