contents Deep Reinforcement learning has shown to be a powerful tool for developing policies in environments where an optimal solution is unclear. In this paper, we attempt to apply Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradients to train a neural network to act as a velocity controller for a quadcopter. The quadcopter's objective is to quickly fly through a gate while avoiding crashing into the gate. We transfer our trained policy to the real world by deploying it on a quadcopter in a laboratory environment. Finally, we demonstrate that the trained policy is able to navigate the drone to the gate in the real world.
