Code

The land scanner bot identifies suitable areas for burning and sends the GPS coordinates to the Pyro bot. The Pyro bot then flies to these coordinates and starts the brush burning process. The glycol injector on a timer prevents jams and misfires, ensuring that the balls drop and catch fire away from the drone. This is my Arduino code. So, the land scanner bot has already flown over and picked out what areas are suitable for burning. The GPS coordinates are then received by the Pyro bot, which flies out to them and starts the brush burning process. One thing to note is that I have the glycol injector moving on a two-and-a-half-second timer. The hopper motor that is feeding the balls will be the mechanism that controls the rate at which the Pyro bot fires. This prevents the hopper from jamming and misfires. If a ball is injected with glycol and does not drop from the drone, there is nothing to stop it from catching fire while attached to the drone.
