Awards & Nominations

POEHALI has received the following awards and nominations. Way to go!

Global Nominee

The Challenge | Out of This World!

Create an app to pilot an unmanned aerial system (UAS), such as a NASA space drone, utilizing the 6-axis gyro sensor within a smartphone or tablet. The piloting app can be combined with multiple sensors for flight precision and the best maneuverable flight techniques for off-Earth planetary drones.

Our goal is to create a universal application for controlling any drones using a smartphone. This will help replace a large number of different remotes with one familiar device - a smartphone

We developed a system to control rover using smartphone's accelerometer and transmitting video signal from rover's front camera

POEHALI

Usually you control stuff using specific and tough controlling stations. But why not use your smartphone instead?

It is more comfortable to use smartphone which connects to the linking station and sending signals to device far far away. We developed a system to do so to control a toy car, but it can be done for pretty much every device like drones or other vehicles for exploration.
