A student at the School of Industrial UPCT, Enrique González Sancho, has designed a drone that can be controlled from a Smartphone.
It is a low drone built from elements of other electronic devices such as cost controls of the Wii.
The drone MTorres received the award for best final project grade or final master project on "more innovative and Talent in the Field of Engineering Solutions".
The prize has received Enrique González is endowed with € 1,000 in cash and a contract / grant € 14,000 gross, says the director of the Department MTorres, Francisco Cavas.
The student is scheduled to begin in the factory of MTorres in Fuente Alamo.
Enrique Gonzalez, 22, who lives in Murcia, began design work for final grade in Industrial Technology Engineering.
The student says it's possible "to build a drone own design, basic knowledge without spending much money.
No need to be a connoisseur of electronics. "
Quadricopter cost around 130 euros, according to the student.
The closest model that is in the market around 300 euros.
The device can be controlled by an app that sends control commands while receiving data on the flight said the student award.
To be designed from scratch with its own software, it is possible to add various features such as video recording or GPS positioning, among others.
This way you can target different applications, says the student.
The final degree work entitled "Design and construction of a low cost quadricopter controlled by an intelligent mobile" have led teachers Iborra Andrés García and Juan Antonio López Riquelme.
The goal to start the project "was teaching, basically.
Enrique González has built its quadricopter recyclable material and structure has made with a 3D printer.
