Crazyflie 101 EPFL-LIS lecture (2023)

This is the 2023 prerecorded version 'Getting Started on the Crazyflie' presentation that Bitcraze gave for 'Aerial Robotics' course as part of the Master in Robotics Colloquium of EPFL. We were invited by Dario Floreano of the EPFL-LIS lab to introduce the students to the Crazyflie 2.1 + the flow deck + multi ranger, and how to achieve autonomy. This lecture also introduces using simulation for the development process.

The flight videos are a bit blurry. Sorry for that!
