The Parrot AR Drone can work with Apple devices such as the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch, but many people do not have those devices. This article shows what is necessary to have it work with Windows 7
The webpage with the program is at

and was written by Thomas Endres.
As many open source projects are, there is essentially nothing that describes the software requirements. From our own tests, these are:
- (1) Windows SDK
- (2) Windows .NET 4
- (3) DirectX SDK
- (4) MS Visual Studio 2010 Express
It is a lot of software to install, but if you do the work, the program gives real time video and control of the parrot AR drone. |
