(Udemy) Let’s Build Startup for Remote Drone Operations/ 4G & Video (Petar Petkanov)

About Course

Learn how to build a Cloud Application for Remote Drone Control Operations with this free course from Udemy. This course will teach you how to code a complete working solution from the ground up. You will learn how to use Java, Python, and JavaScript to build a distributed application that can be used to control drones from anywhere in the world. This course is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to build a drone startup or simply wants to learn more about drone technology.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

Build a backend for your cloud platform that manages drone connections using Java.
Build an application that runs on Raspberry Pi and controls the drone itself using Python.
Write a single-page application for your interactive user interface using JavaScript.
Make all of these applications work together as a single cloud platform for remote drone operations.

This course includes:

Live video streaming from drones
Sharing video links with others
Interactive maps that show the location of drones
Full manual control of drones
Mission setup and activation while drones are flying
