OV with External Autopilot
-
Hi! I'm trying to use
voxl-vision-hubto send voxl-open-vins position data to an external autopilot (ardupilot). I start by making sure the following services are running:- voxl-imu-server
- voxl-open-vins-server
- voxl-camera-server
- voxl-vision-hub
- voxl-mavlink-server
I can confirm that the voxl and external autopilot are connected because I see this on Mission Planner MAVLink Inspector:
and the debug output I see after running

@SKA I would review this page if you haven't already: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-external-flight-controller/
@tom Thanks! I referred to this page in order to set up what I have right now.
My voxl 2 mini is connected to the external autopilot using the one exposed UART. It seems to be connected fine, since I'm receiving the voxl heartbeat on the autopilot end, and I'm receiving autopilot mavlink messages on the voxl side.I wonder if there is anything I might be missing on the voxl-vision-hub side, or elsewhere.
Thanks for your help! -

Thanks for your help!@tom I have some updates, and here's more info on my setup!
voxl-open-vins-serveris running and outputting the following:
voxl-vision-hubandvoxl-mavlink-serverare running, and the odom messages are being sent. Here's the output fromvoxl-mavlink-server -l:
At my external autopilot, the Odometry messages are coming through, but the values are not populating/reading correctly:
Thanks in advance for any input you may have!

@Eric-Katzfey Your output shows that it is connecting properly to ov pipe so shouldn't really be necessary to stop voxl-qvio-server but probably a good idea anyways.

@SKA voxl-vision-hub will print out debug messages showing VIO status as it is running. Can you see anything that may indicate why it thinks VIO is failed?
@Eric-Katzfey Thanks for helping me out with this! I've made some progress at narrowing in on the problem. First to answer your questions:
- QVIO: I tried with
voxl-qvio-serverdisabled, this didn't change anything. - VIO failed state: I fixed some other issues leading to the failed state from
voxl-open-vins-server. Now the ovins translation and rotation outputs look healthy, and time_usec increments normally, but the external autopilot still does not log the odometry output. - Debug: VIO status debug shows that it isn't failing.

Let me know what you think, thanks so much!

@SKA What pipes do you see listed in
/run/mpa? If you run the commandvoxl-inspect-viodoes it show that VIO is running okay? - QVIO: I tried with
