UgCS Drone Dance Controller (DDC) is developed to manage a swarm of drones (up to 100 drones) equipped with lights, fireworks, smoke generators or other payloads for astonishing shows. The drone choreography can be planned in 3D animation software, transformed to drone flight paths via a plugin and managed from a single computer equipped with UgCS DDC.

For UgCS DDC drone shows SPH Engineering has engineered a fleet of from the shelf part – drones are equipped with open-source ArduCopter and RTK GPS units, RGB LED modules and a Wi-Fi adapter. The choreography of the drone is planned in a 3D animation software, like Blender (open-source) and transformed to flight paths for UgCS.
