How to Track Flying Objects?

  Code & schematics for position tracking sensor using HTC Vive's Lighthouse system and a Teensy board.

There is a project out there to utilize HTC Vive lighthouses with a diy sensor. Not sure if something like this is out there for the Steam VR stuff

  Object tracking implemented with the Roboflow Inference API, DeepSort, and OpenAI CLIP.

  

I’ve seen a bunch of drone-detection computer vision projects. Usually they’re detecting dromes from other drones though (Eg for autonomous racing[1] or drone-defense).

A challenge with doing it from the ground is that the drones will be quite small relative to the size of the image. With sufficient compute and several cameras a tiling-based approach[2] should work!

If you want to do unique-identification you’ll also need object tracking[3].

This is exactly the type of project Roboflow (our startup) is built to empower! Happy to chat/help further (Eg we might be able to help source a good dataset to start from). And if it’s for non-commercial use it should be completely free.
