Pengembangan Antarmuka Stasiun Pemantauan Pesawat Tanpa Awak Menggunakan Aplikasi Android

Abstract

Unmanned aerial vehicle began interested by civilian used to monitoring mission. On that mission appear a problem, like how to monitoring using unmanned aerial vehicle that have long mileage easily. Based on that problem, be made interface development of monitoring station of unmanned aerial vehicle using android application. This study aims to design and build a monitoring station interface that support unmanned aerial vehicle monitoring mission, that made the user to know the aircraft condition and what being observed by the aircraft easily. This monitoring station used tethering service from Android tablet and supported by transmission unit that consist of ADAHRS module, webcam, Raspberry Pi module and wireless USB dongle. Test conducted by matching the result of orientation angle variations of ADAHRS with the interface panels and try to show the streaming video from webcam. This study shows the successful implementation of monitoring station on Android application with packet data process response of the interface about 2,5 ms. Obtained farthest monitoring distance on 130,6 m. The best video streaming resolution for monitoring is 640 x 480 pixel or 360 x 240 pixel.
