Simulation Developer · UAV Security · 2025

Educational simulator for drone geofencing, restricted-airspace breaches, telemetry, and spoofing-awareness scenarios.

Problem

Drone restrictions and GPS-spoofing risks are hard to understand from static diagrams alone, especially when learners cannot see telemetry and protected-zone events evolve over time.

Approach

Built a browser-based, simulation-only environment with protected zones, moving drone tracks, scenario controls, telemetry, and an event log. It demonstrates geofencing and threat concepts without interacting with real drones, radio systems, or GPS signals.

Features

Restricted-zone visualization — Shows drone tracks and protected regions in one operational map.
Scenario controls — Switch between normal, breach, and spoofing-awareness scenarios and adjust simulation speed.
Live telemetry — Displays simulated position, altitude, speed, heading, signal strength, and battery state.
Safety-first boundary — Prominently states that every action is local simulation and has no real drone or RF capability.

Outcome

Presented as an IIIT Vadodara academic project and released as a public educational demo, separate from the later Counter-UAS research work.

Stack
