This is a short demo of a toy RC blimp that has been turned into an autonomous aerial robot driven by an Arduino embedded computer. It uses a ultrasonic sensor to maintain altitude and IR sensors to detect a ground-based IR beacon. This demo just shows the blimp circling the beacon and maintaining altitude. Eventually this will become a $70 modkit that you can buy. More details at:
