BMSCE PES and SC - Wings of Code: Simulating UAVs with MATLAB
Description: On account of PES DAY 2025, BMSCE IEEE PES & Sensors Council in collaboration with BMSCE IEEE SB organized an insightful technical session titled “Wings of Code: Simulating UAVs Using SITL”. The session was conducted by Mr. Samartha S, one of the founders of Protonetix Private Limited. The speakers began by introducing the basics of SITL (Software In The Loop) and discussed the fundamental coding languages used for drone simulation. They also explained the physics and mathematical principles behind drone flight. The session further covered the installation of Ubuntu OS and SITL software integration. Attendees were shown live demonstrations of drone operations, including automation techniques where drones could autonomously return to their original location if power runs low.
Impact made: The event provided attendees with a hands-on understanding of UAV simulation and automation. Participants gained practical exposure to drone control mechanisms and the software tools essential for UAV development. The session bridged theoretical concepts with real-world application, significantly boosting the technical confidence of those aspiring to enter drone technology and robotics fields. It also sparked interest in automation and embedded systems among budding engineers.
