Abstract: This paper presents a compact LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) based micro drone tailored for surveillance and autonomous navigation in confined or GPS-denied environments. Utilizing the ESP32-C3 microcontroller, the drone integrates a GYVL53L0X Time-of-Flight (ToF) LIDAR sensor for precise and high-speed obstacle detection, and a BME680 environmental sensor for real-time monitoring of temperature, pressure, humidity, and air quality. The system is powered by an 800mAh Li-Po battery, optimizing energy efficiency and supporting extended operation. Remote monitoring and control are enabled via the Blynk IoT platform. The integration of accurate sensing, efficient power management, and wireless communication makes this drone an effective solution for indoor automation, environmental monitoring, and security applications.
