GPS / Distance Tracking

Hello, is it possible to track the distance of an object. I would like to triangulate several objects at the same time, such as trying to create an indoor GPS system to keep track of multiple quad copters flying indoors. The quads would will fly in formation and possibly avoid obstacles.

Thanks,

Hello David,
Pixy doesn’t provide distance data, but you can infer distance by the size of the object in the image, if you know its actual size. You can also use Pixy to measure the angle to an object or angle between objects to triangulate distance/position as you suggested.

Hope this helps!

Edward
