Making a custom mount for voxl flight deck
-
Hi all
I wanted to miniaturise my voxl flight deck, and want to know what aspects should i consider while i make a new flight deck style mounting for the hardware?
As per my understanding the stereo cameras need to be set at a specific distance apart.
However i wanted to know if any parameters need to be changed so the flight core knows where the stereo camera and the tracking camera are?Thanks & Regards,

You will need to configure the IMU and tracking sensor relationship following this guide: https://docs.modalai.com/configure-extrinsics/
Then you will need to calibrate the cameras following this guide: https://docs.modalai.com/calibrate-cameras/
I would recommend seeing if you can recreate the extrinsics for your existing platform first, and then start to make the mechanical changes.
