Integration, testing, validation, and FAA registration with desired hardware is up to the end user. At a minimum the manufacturer id would need to be changed from ModalAI's id to your companies issued manufacturer id.

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?

I already checked the link. I understand that for gpu delegate "gpu" needs to be specified in /etc/modalai/voxl-tflite-server.conf. My question is what value needs to be used in this configuration file to trigger npu deployment. According to my exploration, specifying "npu" is the same as specifying "gpu".

cpu monitoring reports there are 8 cpus for sentinel. Which of the 8 cpus are opus?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

you are connecting a USB camera to voxl2-mini and using voxl-uvc-server to read the camera images and send them out via MPA voxl-streamer is used to receive the raw frames from voxl-uvc-server, then compress and stream the video to another computer via rtsp protocol for testing purposes, you are disconnecting the USB camera from voxl2-mini voxl-streamer keeps running, but it has no input frames to encode and send out, so it does nothing if you plug the USB camera back into voxl2-mini and restart voxl-uvc-server, the video stream resumes.

It sounds to me that the system is operating properly, but it just does not recover from unplugging the camera.

If you would like the voxl-uvc-server to recover from unplugging the camera, then you can do the following:

run voxl-uvc-server in foreground and see what happens when you unplug the USB camera (does it print any error messages) modify voxl-uvc-sever to exit if it detects camera disconnection : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-uvc-server check the systemd service for voxl-uvc-server to make sure it is restarted automatically if it exits one thing to double check: if the voxl-uvc-server restarts before you plug the USB camera back in, will the voxl-uvc-server automatically detect it, or the camera needs to be plugged in before the voxl-uvc-server is restarted. (the reason why i am asking is because i don't have a usb camera to test this).

i have a m500 development drone. I am following this tutorial

https://docs.modalai.com/docker-on-voxl/

to have docker on my drone but i kind of want to use a more recent version of ubuntu because i want a more recent version of python to work with.

like i want to be able to install more recent versions of numpy and opencv and pandas packages and run scripts on the drone itself.

however, installing the pip version of python3 itself on roskinetic-xenial_v1_0 docker image is something of a pain itself. and in the end it doesn't work.

i was looking for a solution where i didn't have to deal with outdated distributions...

someone said they were able to do ros:noetic-robot a more recent version of python and ubuntu running but when i try to do it I get an error

the forum post

any help would be appreciated

  • We want to compute the total thrust and induced body torque from input commands. Our plan was to use PWM signals from the mavros/rc_out topic, with a "PWM to Thrust" curve (typically quadratic function) and a "Thrust to Yaw Torque" curve (typically linear function) for each motor. Are the parameters for these two curves available? If not, is there a recommendation for our desired computation?
  • We also want the inertia parameters (3x3 matrix).

Thanks in advance for your help.
