A Node.js client library implementing the networking protocols for Parrot AR Drone 2.0 quadcopters. It provides a high-level Client API for takeoff, landing, movement control, and receiving sensor (navdata) and video streams over WiFi.
Use cases
- control a Parrot AR Drone from Node.js
- write autonomous drone flight programs
- read sensor and navdata from a quadcopter
- stream drone video over WiFi
- prototype drone control with a REPL
- build custom drone apps instead of the FreeFlight mobile app
When to choose
- you own a Parrot AR Drone 1.0 or 2.0 and want programmatic control from JavaScript
- you want to experiment with autonomous drone behavior using sensor data
- you prefer a high-level Node.js API over Parrot's C SDK
When to avoid
- you use a newer Parrot drone (e.g. Bebop, Anafi) with a different protocol
- you need a production-supported, actively maintained library
- you work outside Node.js
