  @Jetson-Nano you could just use the CPP mavsdk instance to grab the TOF data from a MPA pipe and then leverage that to do your controls via mavsdk (I am assuming just offboard movement). You can connect over port 14551 just ensure you have localhost comms set to true in voxl-vision-hub.

  Re: Support - information About Indoor mapping and localization

  Looking at the Starling v2 indoor slam for a peculiar mission. I do not currently have a Starling but wondering

  Needs
  -Drone to navigate interior of the building with minimal or no input
  -create a 3D or 2D map to identify Walls, Doorways, Windows (or be able to extract out of the 3D map)
  -BlueList

  Is this something anyone has done or looked into?

  So this wouldn't be a scenario where the GPS is failing entirely, potentially making it in violation of FAA Remote ID, but would just be a weaker signal?

  @Evan-Hertafeld said in Using MPA within voxl-docker-mavsdk-cpp:

  libmodal_pipe

  @Evan-Hertafeld @Jetson-Nano

  You need to share all those files via a volume mount alongside with the /run/mpa directory to allow docker to probe the data and grab from an MPA pipe.

  so in your docker run something like -v /usr/include/modal_start_stop.h:/usr/include/modal_start_stop.h needs to be done - the other option is you just download the actual MPA debian inside your docker image and call it a day - then you will have all the necessary headers, libs, binaries, and you just need to share /run/mpa as a volume to access the data.

  @QSL Hi, thank you for reaching out. There are many ways to achieve what you are trying. Starling 2 is the best starting point. You can then learn about what will work and what will not work and build out your system design from there.
