Next to Andrew Ng, PyImageSearch is the definitive resource for Computer Vision and Deep Learning. I have subscribed to all of his courses and fully endorse their teachings. You will not be disappointed.”
Curious about what you’ll learn?
Autonomous Drones with Computer Vision and OpenCV will teach you how to successfully apply autonomous drone techniques to your work, projects, and research. You will learn via practical, hands-on projects (with lots of code) so you can not only develop your own autonomous drone projects, but feel confident while doing so.
Inside the course you will learn:
- What exactly is a drone?
- The components of a drone
- How does a drone fly?
- Understanding the Tello drone
- Your first Tello “test run”
- Configuring Python to interface with the Tello drone
- Face detection on a drone
- Face following with a drone
- Implementing a 3-axis PID controller
- Human/body detection and tracking
- Gesture detection and recognition on drones
- Creating a “selfie drone” project
- Troubleshooting tips and techniques to debug your drone project
Drone Hardware
Inside this course, we’ll be using the Tello drone, a simple, durable, and affordable quadcopter that can be easily programmed via a Python API.
The Tello includes a built-in 720p camera that can be streamed to OpenCV. We’ll then show you how to automatically process this video stream, make predictions, and then use the output to control your drone.
This course is designed for the Tello drone. If you have the budget, recommend getting the Tello Combo Pack to have extra batteries and a charger for ease of programming.
Adrian and his team were my life saver for all my projects back in college. PyImageSearch was my permanent go-to.”
We had a superb teacher in my university, who challenged us to develop code to solve very, very specific problems. He used to write an introductory example code to get us started, and he cited the sources he used to create it — and that is how I get to know Adrian and PyImageSearch. It is a very good source for learning beyond your background and/or experience in programming languages.”

Simply send me an email and ask for a refund, up to 30 days after your purchase. With all the copies I've sold, I count the number of refunds on one hand. My readers are satisfied and I'm sure you will be too.
Why are we using the Python programming language?
Python is an extremely easy language to learn and has a huge number of powerful packages. Python is the best way to apply autonomous drones to your own projects.
What if I’m a beginner at drone programming?
It's okay if you are brand new to autonomous drones and computer vision! This course makes no assumptions on your prior experience with autonomous drones, computer vision, or deep learning. You'll still be able to follow along with this course, even if you are brand new to the world of autonomous drones.
What drone are we using in this course?
We’ll be using the Tello drone in this course. The Tello is a simple, durable, and affordable quadcopter that can be easily programmed via a Python API.
Do I need to buy a drone to take this course?
To get the most out of this course we do recommend that you purchase a Tello drone; however, you can still follow along with the course and learn the fundamentals without having the drone (but we think we’ll have more fun if you purchase a Tello).
The Tello can be purchased by itself, but we recommend the Tello Combo Pack which includes extra batteries and charger for ease of programming.
Do I need any programming experience before taking this course?
This course assumes you have some prior programming experience (e.g. you know what a variable function, loop, etc. are). You should have more skills than a beginner but certainly not an intermediate or advanced developer. As long as you understand basic programming logic-flow, you'll be successful in reading (and understanding) the contents of this course.
Do I need to know OpenCV?
We assume that you understand the fundamentals of OpenCV in this course. If you’re new to OpenCV, or just need to quickly brush up, we recommend PyImageSearch University — it’s a quick and affordable way to level up your OpenCV, computer vision, and deep learning skills.
Do I need to know Deep Learning, Keras, TensorFlow, etc.?
No, you do not need an intimate understanding of deep learning, Keras, TensorFlow, PyTorch, etc.
However, a little bit of deep learning knowledge can go a long way. If you’d like to have a deeper understanding of deep learning algorithms and models, we recommend PyImageSearch University — it’s a quick and affordable way to level up your OpenCV, computer vision, and deep learning skills.
I'm just so busy right now...
Everyone has the same amount of time in a day — we all have 24 hours to work, spend time with our families, sleep, and have fun. If you're interested in studying autonomous drones, I challenge you to make it your goal. Take the time to invest in yourself and your education by grabbing a copy of Autonomous Drones with Computer Vision and OpenCV.
Ask yourself, how much time are you wasting because:
- You lack the fundamentals of OpenCV, Computer Vision, and Deep Learning.
- You don’t understand what knobs and dials to tune to achieve high accuracy results.
- Your scripts error out, leaving you confused on how to proceed.
Autonomous Drones with Computer Vision and OpenCV solves these problems so you can stop wasting your time and money following paths that only lead to failure — let us guide you to success!
