<p>OpenVulture is a software application and library designed to to control numerous platforms (land, sea, air) using a simple software framework. During the presentation our vision for having cheap and autonomous craft for the public to play with iand hack upon shall be explained. Unfortunately other factors have prevented us from providing a live demo, however our project plans will be unveiled, including a basic set of hardware that a user can obtain in hopes of creating their own autonomous drone. The concepts illustrated will demonstrate cheap UAV building, however the information and software provided can be tweaked to adhere to other platforms (/me thinks Wal-Mart Buggy).</p>
