Embention provides professional training for autopilots

Emben­tion is offer­ing an inten­sive drone train­ing course designed to equip enthu­si­asts and pro­fes­sion­als with the nec­es­sary skills to oper­ate its Veronte autopi­lot sys­tem.

The course spans five days, pro­vid­ing par­tic­i­pants with a com­pre­hen­sive learn­ing expe­ri­ence that com­bines the­o­ret­i­cal knowl­edge and prac­ti­cal appli­ca­tion in the world of unmanned aer­i­al vehi­cles (UAVs). Dur­ing the ini­tial three days of the train­ing course, par­tic­i­pants dive into the the­o­ret­i­cal aspects of Veronte and its con­fig­u­ra­tion using the PDI Builder tool.

The train­ing kicks off on a Mon­day with an overview of the Veronte sys­tem, famil­iaris­ing par­tic­i­pants with essen­tial com­po­nents such as con­nec­tions, sen­sors, and com­mu­ni­ca­tions.

Tues­day delves deep­er into the capa­bil­i­ties of the PDI Builder tool. Par­tic­i­pants explore automa­tion, flight phas­es, block pro­grams, work­space man­age­ment, and mis­sion cre­ation.

The intro­duc­tion of hard­ware in the loop sim­u­la­tions allows par­tic­i­pants to gain valu­able hands-on expe­ri­ence in a con­trolled envi­ron­ment, sim­u­lat­ing real-world sce­nar­ios and enhanc­ing their pro­fi­cien­cy in using the Veronte autopi­lot sys­tem.

Wednes­day serves as the cul­mi­na­tion of the the­o­ret­i­cal train­ing phase. Par­tic­i­pants have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to apply their acquired knowl­edge by build­ing a con­fig­u­ra­tion from scratch. In the after­noon, Embention’s engi­neers con­duct com­pre­hen­sive ground tests.

On the Thurs­day, an Emben­tion PDI engi­neer and pilot demon­strates effec­tive plat­form man­age­ment and the sig­nif­i­cance of prop­er com­mu­ni­ca­tion between oper­a­tors.

This allows par­tic­i­pants to wit­ness the Veronte autopi­lot sys­tem in action, fol­lowed by a com­pre­hen­sive post-flight analy­sis. Based on the results obtained, mod­i­fi­ca­tions are made to the con­fig­u­ra­tion for the flight on Fri­day.

On the Fri­day, par­tic­i­pants con­duct a ground test and oper­ate the plat­form them­selves to apply their new­ly acquired skills under the guid­ance and sup­port of Embention’s expert train­ers.

By the end of the train­ing course, par­tic­i­pants will have devel­oped the nec­es­sary skills and con­fi­dence to autonomous­ly oper­ate UAVs pow­ered by the Veronte autopi­lot sys­tem.

In Feb­ru­ary, Skyfly and Emben­tion announced that they would col­lab­o­rate on avion­ics and motor con­trol.
