Autopilot software development for unmanned aerial vehicle systems

The choice of fixed-wing aircraft with customizable advanced autonomy is now almost non-existent, especially compared to multi-rotor UAVs. Most of the research labs working in this field rely on their in-house developed prototypes, leaving a large gap in the market for advanced fixed-wing aircraft systems. The project aims to fill these gaps and develop not only a compact hardware platform, but also equip it with advanced autonomy so that it can be used by non-experts as well. The broader goal of this project is to pioneer the development of autonomous solutions for unmanned aerial systems (UAS), which include fixed-wing aircraft, multirotors and others. As a result of the project's activities, a ready-to-implement hardware and software package is completed, which supports ROS (Robot Operating System) and multi-agent systems (MAS) for drone fleet control.
