Tutorial Simulation

After following this tutorial the reader should be able to run a basic simulation of a drone following a yellow object (which resembles a ball) on a soccer field. The simulation environment chosen for this project was CoppeliaSim (also known as V-rep). This environment was chosen because of its intuitive API and the ability of its internal object scripts, more information about how CoppeliaSim deals with scripts can be found here https://www.coppeliarobotics.com/helpFiles/en/scripts.htm. It should be noted that the reader should also be familiar with the beginner concepts of the Robot Operating System (ROS). If unfamiliar with ROS, skills can be obtained by following tutorials found on there site: http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/Tutorials.
