The completed drone will be used in Search and Rescue (SAR) operations in wilderness locations. A raspberry pi with a Night Vision camera module will output a live video feed over a local network.

Brushless motor and ESC being controlled by an arduino uno. This setup will be used to verify the manufacturer's data, to ensure that the motor can life the drone. A simple testing rig has been built.
Currently, the raspberry pi can output video from the night vision module over a local network, by inputting the Pi's IP address into a web browser. The pi can be accessed remotely and is able to detect general objects and place a box around the object.
However, the final goal is to get the pi to recognise a human figure/face and place a box around them. Further work will continue on this.
Good start! What are you going to use to do the analysis of the video? There are many approaches to this, depending on language, etc.
Good luck!
