avoidance collision prevention disabled

[AP123]

Avoidance collision prevention disabled, not sure why its not working. I'm running 0.9.5 SDK. VOA is set to true. All help is appreciated.

Thank you

@AP123 First off I'd recommend loading SDK 1.0 but secondly did you load the voa helper files from https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-px4-params/-/blob/master/params/v1.12/collision_prevention_enable.params ?

These are px4 v1.12 specific since you're on SDK 0.9.5

@tom I have not, are there instructions on how to load the file by chance?

[tom]

@AP123 SDK 1.0 allows you to load params using an onboard wizard but on 0.9.5 you'll have to load them via. QGroundControl: https://docs.modalai.com/upload-px4-parameters/#4-upload-parameters-file

You'll have to clone the https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-px4-params repo and load this file https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-px4-params/-/blob/master/params/v1.12/collision_prevention_enable.params through the above method

@tom I have loaded the file but it still says avoidance system not available. Any ideas why?

[tom]

@AP123 Where is it saying that message>

[AP123]

@tom On QGC when i try to arm the drone.

@tom

[tom]

@AP123 Are you able to see all the expected data in voxl-portal? https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-vision-px4-collision-prevention-0_9/#voxl-portal-to-view-depth-map

[AP123]

@tom

This is what i have

[tom]

@AP123 And when you view them , data is coming through correctly?

[AP123]

@tom No data is coming through. I tried messing with QGC IP in /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-px4.conf. But didn't work. Where can i find that value just to verify i changed it correctly? Also, could there be another reason data is not coming in?

[tom]

@AP123 In portal you aren't seeing anything when you select "Stereo Front Disparity" for example?

[AP123]

@tom

nope nothing

[tom]

@AP123 What about the "stereo" one itself?

[AP123]

@tom yes i have camera feed there

[AP123]

@tom ok, i am getting data now from all off them! Although the avoidance system is still not working

[tom]

@AP123 might be worth trying this to see if the voxl-vision-px4 is handling the avoidance data correctly: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-vision-px4-collision-prevention-0_9/#debugging-collision-prevention

[AP123]

@tom The data is flowing properly but QGC is still saying Not Ready, and Avoidance system not ready. What else can i do?

[tom]

@AP123 When you click on Not Ready does it give you any more info?
