In this video, I take one of our Drone Dojo Raspberry Pi Rover kits and equip it with both RTK GPS and Spray Painting abilities... then we went out and vandalized public parks by drawing giant 40ft spray paint smiley faces with autonomous missions (so we can escape the scene of the crime?).

RTK GPS is a unique type of GPS that is capable of receiving centimeter level accuracy, while conventional GPS setups can only get about 5m of accuracy. In the first part of this video, we equip the ardurover with the ArduSimple RTK board with the U-BLOX F9P chip.

After achieving the RTK Fixed signal, we equip the Raspberry Pi Rover with a spray paint can that we can activate from the pixhawk, so draw whatever we want with precision.
