Introduction
This project entailed the integration, development, and testing of a landing/launching station system for a drone delivery service. The hardware for the station (also referred to as the 'nest') was supplied by a company named Valkyri.
Requirements
The initial requirements were outlined as follows:
- The station would serve as the landing and launching pad for drones tasked with delivering small packages.
- The drone would autonomously land and take off after depositing the package.
- The delivered package would be placed in one of the six compartments within the station (as depicted below).
- Upon delivery, the user would receive a notification along with an unlocking code to access the designated compartment.

However, the project has been temporarily suspended by the client, and no further progress has been made.
