Microbee is a four-rotor model helicopter based on the [http://www.mikrokopter.de/ucwiki/en/MikroKopter Mikrokopter] system design. It's equipped with the latest electronics hardware and is capable of photography, vision guided autonomous navigation as well as normal radio-control flying by a human being. An advanced vision recognition system is currently being developed based on the high performance, low power Texas Instruments OMAP3 platform.

- An advanced computer vision system is being prototyped on a [http://beagleboard.org/ BeagleBoard] single board Linux computer. It's a latest generation, low-power, embedded processing platform. Basic computer vision algorithms have been implemented on it. The source code is being optimised to off-load the number-crunching to the DSP & GPU processors to achieve real-time vision performance.

 * 600 MHz ARM Cortex-A8 with NEON SIMD Co-processor
 * 430 MHz TMS320C64x+ DSP (fixed point, six parallel vector units)
 * 110 MHz SGX GPU
As the Beagle Board allows connection of keyboard, mouse, and display, it hosts the development toolchain and allows direct coding, compiling, and executing the embedded computer vision algorithms. Once stable, the smaller and lighter [http://www.gumstix.com/ Gumstix] Overo Water embedded module will be used on-board.
