Drone Simulator Autopilot
One of the most fun pre-interview coding challenges was one for Zipline. In this challenge, I was given a drone that sent packets of sensor data (wind speed, position, LIDAR data) and expected left/right throttle and package drop commands.
Out of 1,000 runs, my autopilot never delivered two packages to the same site, crashed 58 times (5.8%), Never missed the final drop site, and had a delivery rate of 70.44%.
