@Muqing-Cao said in Integrating lidar sensor:

About using another state estimation source, can you suggest me how to do that? Say we can get lidar-based position estimate in ROS message, can we disable the onboard VIO and feed our position estimate to the onboard flight controller through MAVROS or something else? Please advise.

Please help advise on this question, thanks

@Muqing-Cao You can get the VIO data from the ROS1 and ROS2 Topic /ov_overlay , /ov, or /qvio depending on which VIO you are using. Both have the same type interfaces available so either should work. Yes, you will be able to get run the commands on a host computer and as long as they are on the same ROS_DOMAIN_ID, for ROS2 this should be automatic.
