For the past year or so, I've been working on the VeriDrone research project at UC San Diego, in which we formally verify quadcopter safety software. Our goal is to build a software module to load on an off the shelf quadcopter in order to enforce safety constraints on the vehicle, like preventing it from flying too high, over an airport, etc. I know that some existing quadcopters have similar software, but our novel contribution is that it's formally verified, giving you extremely strong guarantees that the software does what it should. Here's a short video giving a brief introduction to the project: Short introduction to the VeriDrone project.
I'm posting this here because I'm hoping to get some feedback from pilots on the merits of such a system. Would pilots like this? Would people use it? Would it make anyone feel safer?
