VIO Algorithms

Good Morning guys,

I would like to know how could I test my own VIO algorithms on sentinel drone.

Best Regards!

@leonardo-Andrade-0 , you should take a look at the software architecture diagram here :

https://docs.modalai.com/mpa/

look for a process called voxl-qvio-server in the diagram. It receives camera images (from voxl-camera-server) and IMU data (from voxl-imu-server)

You can create your own process that subscribes to camera and imu data similarly to voxl-qvio-server and implement your own algorithm.

You will probably benefit from using a logging / playback feature as well (to record and play back images and imu data). Then you can play back data and compare output from voxl-qvio-server and your implementation.
