Introduction
Following part 1 and part 2, we now have a quadcopter capable of precise indoor localization and navigation using position data provided the Intel Realsense T265. In this last part of the ROS-based portion of my ongoing series of labs, we will take a look at how to use Mission Planner or python program to send waypoints to ArduPilot, perform autonomous flights, and verify the tracking performance of the T265 under some challenging scenarios.
This blog is divided into the ... Read more

Balance Bots can run all Rover modes now:
Balance Bot was one of the GSoC 2018 projects. When I made my final submission for GSoC, we could only run Manual and Hold Modes. The rest of the modes were actually done by December 2018, but I couldn’t find time to make a video or update the wiki, until now.
I’ve used a 3d printed frame that I had designed. I’ll share the CAD files once I’m done with a few more changes. In fact, any frame should do. All the code is on master and as I understand will be part of the next Rover release.
The wiki has also been updated, so do take a ... Read more

This is a followup to the post from yesterday which compared a uBlox M8P and a uBlox F9P without external corrections. In this post I will compare the same two GPS modules but this time I have supplied high quality RTCM 3.2 correction data from a local NTRIP server (2.9km from the test location at my house).
The ... Read more
