AI & Advanced Sensor Technology
The WhalesBot Eagle 1003 integrates multiple onboard sensors to support safe, stable and programmable flight.
- AI Image Sensor – Enables intelligent visual recognition capabilities
- Optical Flow Sensor – Provides stable hovering and indoor positioning
- Laser Range Sensor – Measures distance for obstacle awareness
- 6-Axis Gyroscope – Maintains balance and flight stability
- Barometric Pressure Sensor – Assists with altitude control
These integrated systems allow teachers to introduce key concepts such as sensor fusion, stabilisation algorithms and autonomous flight.
Programmable Flight & Control
The Eagle 1003 can be controlled via a dedicated remote controller or programmed using block-based coding. This allows students to move from manual flight to designing their own autonomous routines.
Using coding, students can create:
- Pre-set flight paths
- Automated take-off and landing routines
- Sensor-triggered responses
- Simple AI-driven behaviours
This supports progression from introductory coding to more advanced STEM learning.
Hardware & Performance
- EG103 flight controller
- Hollow cup motors for responsive flight
- Rechargeable batteries included
The lightweight design and integrated safety features make the Eagle 1003 suitable for controlled indoor classroom use.
