Clear Sky
Dwugłowy projekt dronowy: VISION — moja praca inżynierska o autonomicznej percepcji — oraz DEIMOS, hobbistyczny DIY-dron, który składam dla pracy inżynierskiej po godzinach.

Two halves of the same obsession with things that fly and look around on their own.
VISION — engineering thesis
The academic half of Clear Sky. Focus: autonomous perception for small UAVs — running CV pipelines onboard rather than streaming everything to a ground station.
- Camera + onboard inference loop, target latency under a frame.
- Detection / tracking pipeline, tuned for low compute.
- Written up as my engineering thesis at Uniwersytet Rzeszowski.
DEIMOS — the hobby drone
The hands-on half. A DIY quad I’m building from frame up: choosing components, flashing flight controllers, tuning PIDs, breaking propellers and ordering new ones.
- Custom frame, off-the-shelf flight controller, telemetry on a separate radio.
- Goal: a stable platform I can later run VISION’s pipeline on.
- A reminder that academic results don’t survive first contact with the wind.
Why it lives in one project page
VISION without a real airframe is a paper; DEIMOS without VISION is a toy. Together they’re the same loop — see, decide, fly — split between a laboratory and a workbench.
