Software Development for Ardupilot Powered Unmanned Systems

What you'll learn:

Drone Programming Primer for Software Development – Course Site

  • Students will gain knowledge of the open-source software tools that make up the drone’s software stack
  • Know how to develop high-level drone applications in python
  • Be able to test code they write on a simulated vehicle running on their computer
  • Use this foundational introductory knowledge to investigate more advanced drone software subjects

Requirements:

  • Basic Linux knowledge of command-line commands (cd, mkdir, vi etc)
  • Basic python knowledge for the drone kit section. (Understanding of any other programming language should suffice)
  • The only equipment that is needed is a computer with an internet connection
  • NO DRONE IS REQUIRED. We use a simulated vehicle in this course

Description:

Fully autonomous unmanned systems are important technological and engineering wonders of today's world. All autonomous unmanned systems need an autopilot that controls the behaviors and working mechanism of the unmanned platform and controls the platform by semi-autonomous or fully autonomous.

The ArduPilot project provides an advanced, full-featured, and reliable open source autopilot software system. The Ardupilot software system is capable of controlling almost any vehicle system imaginable: conventional and VTOL airplanes, gliders, multi-rotors, helicopters, sailboats, powered boats, submarines, ground vehicles, and even balance robots. The supported vehicle types frequently expand as use cases emerge for new and novel platforms. Drone Programming Udemy

This course covers some of the most important aspects of software development for controlling and monitoring Ardupilot autopilot software system-powered unmanned autonomous systems.

In this course, you are going to learn the following:

  • Ability to setup and run Ardupilot autopilot simulation environment.

  • Developing Python programming language scripts that communicate with Ardupilot software system using Dronekit library.

  • Understanding MAVLink messages and creating custom scripts using Python programming language and PyMAVLink library.

  • Learn how to use the MAVProxy Command Line Ground Control Station and what it does.

  • Autopilot onboard software development using LUA programming language.

  • Custom embedded software development with Ardupilot autopilot software system.

In this course, there are also supplementary sample projects, assignments, and resources to gain hands-on experience to work with the Ardupilot autopilot software system.
