# 利用视觉或运动捕捉系统进行位置估计
|
||
|
||
可视惯性测距(VIO)和运动捕捉(MOCAP)系统允许载具在全局位置源不可用或不可靠时(例如在室内,或在桥下飞行时)导航。 等等……
|
||
|
||
Both VIO and MoCap determine a vehicle's _pose_ (position and attitude) from "visual" information.
|
||
它们之间的主要区别是框架透视图:
|
||
|
||
- VIO uses _onboard sensors_ to get pose data from the vehicle's perspective (see [egomotion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_odometry#Egomotion)).
|
||
- MoCap uses a system of _off-board cameras_ to get vehicle pose data in a 3D space (i.e. it is an external system that tells the vehicle its pose).
|
||
|
||
任何类型系统的 Pose 数据都可用于更新基于 PX4 自动驾驶仪的局部位置估计(相对于本地源),也可以选择融合到飞机姿态估计中。 Additionally, if the external pose system also provides linear velocity measurements, it can be used to improve the state estimate (fusion of linear velocity measurements is only supported by the EKF2).
|
||
|
||
This topic explains how to configure a PX4-based system to get data from MoCap/VIO systems (either via ROS or some other MAVLink system) and more specifically how to set up MoCap systems like VICON and Optitrack, and vision-based estimation systems like [ROVIO](https://github.com/ethz-asl/rovio), [SVO](https://github.com/uzh-rpg/rpg_svo) and [PTAM](https://github.com/ethz-asl/ethzasl_ptam)).
|
||
|

:::info
|
||
The instructions differ depending on whether you are using the EKF2 or LPE estimator.

|
||
## PX4 MAVLink 集成
|
||
|
||
PX4 uses the following MAVLink messages for getting external position information, and maps them to [uORB topics](../middleware/uorb.md):
|
||
|
||
| MAVLink | uORB |
|
||
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------- |
|
||
| [VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE) | `vehicle_visual_odometry` |
|
||
| [ODOMETRY](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ODOMETRY) (`frame_id =` [MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD)) | `vehicle_visual_odometry` |
|
||
| [ATT_POS_MOCAP](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ATT_POS_MOCAP) | `vehicle_mocap_odometry` |
|
||
| [ODOMETRY](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ODOMETRY) (`frame_id =` [MAV_FRAME_MOCAP_NED](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#MAV_FRAME_MOCAP_NED)) | `vehicle_mocap_odometry` |
|
||
|
||
EKF2 only subscribes to `vehicle_visual_odometry` topics and can hence only process the first two messages
|
||
(a MoCap system must generate these messages to work with EKF2). The odometry message is the only message that can send also linear velocities to PX4.
|
||
The LPE estimator subscribes to both topics, and can hence process all the above messages.
|
||
|
||
:::tip
|
||
EKF2 is the default estimator used by PX4.
|
||
It is better tested and supported than LPE, and should be used by preference.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
The messages should be streamed at between 30Hz (if containing covariances) and 50 Hz.
|
||
If the message rate is too low, EKF2 will not fuse the external vision messages.
|
||
|
||
The following MAVLink "vision" messages are not currently supported by PX4:
|
||
[GLOBAL_VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#GLOBAL_VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE),
|
||
[VISION_SPEED_ESTIMATE](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#VISION_SPEED_ESTIMATE),
|
||
[VICON_POSITION_ESTIMATE](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#VICON_POSITION_ESTIMATE)
|
||
|
||
## 参考机架
|
||
|
||
PX4 uses FRD (X **F**orward, Y **R**ight and Z **D**own) for the local body frame as well for the reference frame. When using the heading of the magnetometer, the PX4 reference frame x axis will be aligned with north, so therefore it is called NED (X **N**orth, Y **E**ast, Z **D**own). The heading of the reference frame of the PX4 estimator and the one of the external pose estimate will not match in most cases.
|
||
Therefore the reference frame of the external pose estimate is named differently, it is called [MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD).
|
||
|
||
Depending on the source of your reference frame, you will need to apply a custom transformation to the pose estimate before sending the MAVLink Vision/MoCap message.
|
||
This is necessary to change the orientation of the parent and child frame of the pose estimate, such that it fits the PX4 convention. Have a look at the MAVROS [_odom_ plugin](https://github.com/mavlink/mavros/blob/master/mavros_extras/src/plugins/odom.cpp) for the necessary transformations.
|
||
|
||
:::tip
|
||
ROS users can find more detailed instructions below in [Reference Frames and ROS](#reference-frames-and-ros).
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
For example, if using the Optitrack framework the local frame has $x{}$ and $z{}$ on the horizontal plane (_x_ front and _z_ right) while _y_ axis is vertical and pointing up.
|
||
A simple trick is swapping axis in order to obtained NED convention.
|
||
|
||
If `x_{mav}`, `y_{mav}` and `z_{mav}` are the coordinates that are sent through MAVLink as position feedback, then we obtain:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
x_{mav} = x_{mocap}
|
||
y_{mav} = z_{mocap}
|
||
z_{mav} = - y_{mocap}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Regarding the orientation, keep the scalar part _w_ of the quaternion the same and swap the vector part _x_, _y_ and _z_ in the same way.
|
||
You can apply this trick with every system - if you need to obtain a NED frame, look at your MoCap output and swap axis accordingly.
|
||
|
||
## EKF2 调参/配置
|
||
|
||
Note: this is a quick overview.
|
||
For more detailed information, check the [Using PX4's Navigation Filter (EKF2)](../advanced_config/tuning_the_ecl_ekf.md)
|
||
|
||
The following parameters must be set to use external position information with EKF2 (these can be set in _QGroundControl_ > **Vehicle Setup > Parameters > EKF2**).
|
||
|
||
| 参数 | 外部位置估计的设置 |
|
||
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| [EKF2_EV_CTRL](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EV_CTRL) | Set _horizontal position fusion_, _vertical vision fusion_, _velocity fusion_, and _yaw fusion_, according to your desired fusion model. |
|
||
| [EKF2_HGT_REF](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_HGT_REF) | Set to _Vision_ to use the vision as the reference source for altitude estimation. |
|
||
| [EKF2_EV_DELAY](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EV_DELAY) | 设置为测量的时间戳和 "实际" 捕获时间之间的差异。 For more information see [below](#tuning-EKF2_EV_DELAY). |
|
||
| [EKF2_EV_POS_X](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EV_POS_X), [EKF2_EV_POS_Y](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EV_POS_Y), [EKF2_EV_POS_Z](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EV_POS_Z) | 设置视觉传感器(或 MoCap 标记)相对于机器人的车身框架的位置。 |
|
||
|
||
You can also disable GNSS, baro and range finder fusion using [EKF2_GPS_CTRL](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_GPS_CTRL), [EKF2_BARO_CTRL](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_BARO_CTRL) and [EKF2_RNG_CTRL](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_RNG_CTRL), respectively.

#### Tuning EKF2_EV_DELAY {#tuning-EKF2_EV_DELAY}
|
||
|
||
[EKF2_EV_DELAY](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EV_DELAY) is the _Vision Position Estimator delay relative to IMU measurements_.
|
||
|
||
该值可以通过不同的参数一起调整,在动态变化中来保证最低 EKF 。
|
||
|
||
Technically this can be set to 0 if there is correct timestamping (not just arrival time) and timesync (e.g NTP) between MoCap and (for example) ROS computers.
|
||
In reality, this needs some empirical tuning since delays in the entire MoCap->PX4 chain are very setup-specific.
|
||
It is rare that a system is setup with an entirely synchronised chain!
|
||
|
||
A rough estimate of the delay can be obtained from logs by checking the offset between IMU rates and the EV rates.
|
||
To enable logging of EV rates set bit 7 (Computer Vision and Avoidance) of [SDLOG_PROFILE](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#SDLOG_PROFILE).
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
:::info
|
||
A plot of external data vs. onboard estimate (as above) can be generated using [FlightPlot](../log/flight_log_analysis.md#flightplot) or similar flight analysis tools.
|
||
At time of writing (July 2021) neither [Flight Review](../log/flight_log_analysis.md#flight-review-online-tool) nor [MAVGCL](../log/flight_log_analysis.md#mavgcl) support this functionality.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
可以通过更改参数来进一步调整该值,以找到在动态变化中最低的 EKF 更新值。
|
||
|
||
## LPE 调参/配置
|
||
|
||
You will first need to [switch to the LPE estimator](../advanced/switching_state_estimators.md) by setting the following parameters: [LPE_EN](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_EN) (1), [EKF2_EN](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#EKF2_EN) (0), [ATT_EN](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#ATT_EN) (0).
|
||
|
||
:::info
|
||
If targeting `px4_fmu-v2` hardware you will also need to use a firmware version that includes the LPE module (firmware for other FMU-series hardware includes both LPE and EKF).
|
||
The LPE version can be found in the zip file for each PX4 release or it can be built from source using the build command `make px4_fmu-v2_lpe`.
|
||
See [Building the Code](../dev_setup/building_px4.md) for more details.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
### 启用外部位置输入
|
||
|
||
The following parameters must be set to use external position information with LPE (these can be set in _QGroundControl_ > **Vehicle Setup > Parameters > Local Position Estimator**).
|
||
|
||
| 参数 | 外部位置估计的设置 |
|
||
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| [LPE_FUSION](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_FUSION) | Vision integration is enabled if _fuse vision position_ is checked (it is enabled by default). |
|
||
| [ATT_EXT_HDG_M](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#ATT_EXT_HDG_M) | 设置为1或 2,以启用外部标题集成。 Set to 1 or 2 to enable external heading integration. Setting it to 1 will cause vision to be used, while 2 enables MoCap heading use. |
|
||
|
||
### 禁用气压计融合
|
||
|
||
MAVROS 具有插件,可使用以下管道从 VIO 或 MOCAP 系统中继可视化估计:
|
||
|
||
This can be done by in _QGroundControl_ by unchecking the _fuse baro_ option in the [LPE_FUSION](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_FUSION) parameter.
|
||
|
||
### 滤波噪声参数调参
|
||
|
||
If your vision or MoCap data is highly accurate, and you just want the estimator to track it tightly, you should reduce the standard deviation parameters: [LPE_VIS_XY](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_VIS_XY) and [LPE_VIS_Z](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_VIS_Z) (for VIO) or [LPE_VIC_P](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_VIC_P) (for MoCap).
|
||
If you're working with EKF2, only the "vision" pipelines are supported. To use MoCap data with EKF2 you will have to <a href="http://wiki.ros.org/roslaunch/XML/remap">remap</a> the pose topic that you get from MoCap:
|
||
You may need to set them lower than the allowed minimum and force-save.
|
||
|
||
:::tip
|
||
If performance is still poor, try increasing the [LPE_PN_V](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#LPE_PN_V) parameter.
|
||
This will cause the estimator to trust measurements more during velocity estimation.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
## Enabling Auto Modes with a Local Position
|
||
|
||
All PX4 automatic flight modes (such as [Mission](../flight_modes_mc/mission.md), [Return](../flight_modes_mc/return.md), [Land](../flight_modes_mc/land.md), [Hold](../flight_modes_mc/land.md), [Orbit](../flight_modes_mc/orbit.md))) require a _global_ position estimate, which would normally come from a GPS/GNSS system.
|
||
|
||
Systems that only have a _local_ position estimate (from MOCAP, VIO, or similar) can use the [SET_GPS_GLOBAL_ORIGIN](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#SET_GPS_GLOBAL_ORIGIN) MAVLink message to set the origin of the EKF to a particular global location.
|
||
EKF will then provide a global position estimate based on origin and local frame position.
|
||
|
||
This can then be used when planning and executing indoor missions, or to set a local return point, and so on.
|
||
|
||
## 使用 ROS
|
||
|
||
ROS is not _required_ for supplying external pose information, but is highly recommended as it already comes with good integrations with VIO and MoCap systems.
|
||
PX4 must already have been set up as above.
|
||
|
||
### 将数据输入 ROS
|
||
|
||
VIO and MoCap systems have different ways of obtaining pose data, and have their own setup and topics.
|
||
|
||
The setup for specific systems is covered [below](#setup_specific_systems).
|
||
When using external heading estimation, magnetic North is ignored and faked with a vector corresponding to world <em x-id="3">x</em> axis (which can be placed freely during Vision/MoCap calibration). Yaw angle is therefore given with respect to local <em x-id="3">x</em>.
|
||
|
||
### Relaying Pose Data to PX4 {#relaying_pose_data_to_px4}
|
||
|
||
MAVROS has plugins to relay a visual estimation from a VIO or MoCap system using the following pipelines:
|
||
|
||
| ROS | MAVLink | uORB |
|
||
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------- |
|
||
| /mavros/vision_pose/pose | [VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#VISION_POSITION_ESTIMATE) | `vehicle_visual_odometry` |
|
||
| /mavros/odometry/out (`frame_id = odom`, `child_frame_id = base_link`) | [ODOMETRY](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ODOMETRY) (`frame_id =` [MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD)) | `vehicle_visual_odometry` |
|
||
| /mavros/mocap/pose | [ATT_POS_MOCAP](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ATT_POS_MOCAP) | `vehicle_mocap_odometry` |
|
||
| /mavros/odometry/out (`frame_id = odom`, `child_frame_id = base_link`) | [ODOMETRY](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ODOMETRY) (`frame_id =` [MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD)) | `vehicle_mocap_odometry` |
|
||
|
||
You can use any of the above pipelines with LPE.
|
||
|
||
If you're working with EKF2, only the "vision" pipelines are supported.
|
||
To use MoCap data with EKF2 you will have to [remap](https://wiki.ros.org/roslaunch/XML/remap) the pose topic that you get from MoCap:
|
||
|
||
- MoCap ROS topics of type `geometry_msgs/PoseStamped` or `geometry_msgs/PoseWithCovarianceStamped` must be remapped to `/mavros/vision_pose/pose`.
|
||
The `geometry_msgs/PoseStamped` topic is most common as MoCap doesn't usually have associated covariances to the data.
|
||
- If you get data through a `nav_msgs/Odometry` ROS message then you will need to remap it to `/mavros/odometry/out`, making sure to update the `frame_id` and `child_frame_id` accordingly.
|
||
- The odometry frames `frame_id = odom`, `child_frame_id = base_link` can be changed by updating the file in `mavros/launch/px4_config.yaml`. However, the current version of mavros (`1.3.0`) needs to be able to use the tf tree to find a transform from `frame_id` to the hardcoded frame `odom_ned`. The same applies to the `child_frame_id`, which needs to be connected in the tf tree to the hardcoded frame `base_link_frd`. If you are using mavros `1.2.0` and you didn't update the file `mavros/launch/px4_config.yaml`, then you can safely use the odometry frames `frame_id = odom`, `child_frame_id = base_link` without much worry.
|
||
- Note that if you are sending odometry data to px4 using `child_frame_id = base_link`, then you need to make sure that the `twist` portion of the `nav_msgs/Odometry` message is **expressed in body frame**, **not in inertial frame!!!!!**.
|
||
|
||
### 参考框架和 ROS
|
||
|
||
The local/world and world frames used by ROS and PX4 are different.
|
||
|
||
| 框架 | ROS | ROS |
|
||
| ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| 机体 | FRD (X **F**orward, Y **R**ight, Z **D**own) | FLU (X **F**orward, Y **L**eft, Z **U**p), usually named `base_link` |
|
||
| 世界坐标系 | FRD or NED (X **N**orth, Y **E**ast, Z **D**own) | FLU or ENU (X **E**ast, Y **N**orth, Z **U**p), with the naming being `odom` or `map` |
|
||
|
||
:::tip
|
||
See [REP105: Coordinate Frames for Mobile Platforms](https://www.ros.org/reps/rep-0105.html) for more information about ROS frames.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
如果你把机体命名为 <code>robot1</code>,你会得到一个主题,比如 <code>/vrpn_client_node/robot1/pose</code>
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
With EKF2 when using external heading estimation, magnetic north can either be ignored and or the heading offset to magnetic north can be calculated and compensated. Depending on your choice the yaw angle is given with respect to either magnetic north or local _x_.
|
||
|
||
:::info
|
||
When creating the rigid body in the MoCap software, remember to first align the robot's local _x_ axis with the world _x_ axis otherwise the yaw estimate will have an offset. This can stop the external pose estimate fusion from working properly.
|
||
Yaw angle should be zero when body and reference frame align.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
在设置了上述(特定)系统之一之后,您现在应该可以进行测试了。
|
||
After setting up one of the (specific) systems described above you should now be ready to test. The instructions below show how to do so for MoCap and VIO systems
|
||
If you have an Optitrack system you can use [mocap_optitrack](https://github.com/ros-drivers/mocap_optitrack) node which streams the object pose on a ROS topic already in ENU.
|
||
With a remapping you can directly publish it on `mocap_pose_estimate` as it is without any transformation and MAVROS will take care of NED conversions.
|
||
|
||
The MAVROS odometry plugin makes it easy to handle the coordinate frames.
|
||
It uses ROS's tf package. Your external pose system might have a completely different frame convention that does not match the one of PX4.
|
||
The body frame of the external pose estimate can depend on how you set the body frame in the MOCAP software or on how you mount the VIO sensor on the drone.
|
||
The MAVROS odometry plugin needs to know how the external pose's child frame is oriented with respect to either the airframe's FRD or FLU body frame known by MAVROS.
|
||
You therefore have to add the external pose's body frame to the tf tree. This can be done by including an adapted version of the following line into your ROS launch file.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
<node pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" name="tf_baseLink_externalPoseChildFrame"
|
||
args="0 0 0 <yaw> <pitch> <roll> base_link <external_pose_child_frame> 1000"/>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Make sure that you change the values of yaw, pitch and roll such that it properly attaches the external pose's body frame to the `base_link` or `base_link_frd`.
|
||
Have a look at the [tf package](https://wiki.ros.org/tf#static_transform_publisher) for further help on how to specify the transformation between the frames.
|
||
You can use rviz to check if you attached the frame right. The name of the `external_pose_child_frame` has to match the child_frame_id of your `nav_msgs/Odometry` message.
|
||
The same also applies for the reference frame of the external pose. You have to attach the reference frame of the external pose as child to either the `odom` or `odom_frd` frame. Adapt therefore the following code line accordingly.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
<node pkg="tf" type="static_transform_publisher" name="tf_odom_externalPoseParentFrame"
|
||
args="0 0 0 <yaw> <pitch> <roll> odom <external_pose_parent_frame> 1000"/>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If the reference frame has the z axis pointing upwards you can attached it without any rotation (yaw=0, pitch=0, roll=0) to the `odom` frame.
|
||
The name of `external_pose_parent_frame` has to match the frame_id of the odometry message.
|
||
|
||
:::info
|
||
When using the MAVROS _odom_ plugin, it is important that no other node is publishing a transform between the external pose's reference and child frame.
|
||
This might break the _tf_ tree.

||

## Specific System Setups {#setup_specific_systems}
|
||
|
||
### 光学跟踪 MoCap
|
||
|
||
The following steps explain how to feed position estimates from an [OptiTrack](https://optitrack.com/applications/robotics/) system to PX4.
|
||
It is assumed that the MoCap system is calibrated.
|
||
See [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNZaFEghTBU) for a tutorial on the calibration process.
|
||
|
||
#### Steps on the _Motive_ MoCap software
|
||
|
||
- Align your robot's forward direction with the [system +x-axis](https://v20.wiki.optitrack.com/index.php?title=Template:Coordinate_System)
|
||
- [Define a rigid body in the Motive software](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e6Qqxqe-k0). Give the robot a name that does not contain spaces, e.g. `robot1` instead of `Rigidbody 1`
|
||
- [Enable Frame Broadacst and VRPN streaming](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYRNG58zPFo)
|
||
- 将 "向上" 轴设置为 z 轴(默认值为 y)
|
||
|
||
#### 将数据输入 ROS
|
||
|
||
- Install the `vrpn_client_ros` package
|
||
- You can get each rigid body pose on an individual topic by running
|
||
bash
|
||
roslaunch vrpn_client_ros sample.launch server:=
|
||
```sh
|
||
roslaunch vrpn_client_ros sample.launch server:=<mocap machine ip>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you named the rigidbody as `robot1`, you will get a topic like `/vrpn_client_node/robot1/pose`
|
||
|
||
#### 重新映射/重新映射位置数据
|
||
|
||
MAVROS provides a plugin to relay pose data published on `/mavros/vision_pose/pose` to PX4.
|
||
Assuming that MAVROS is running, you just need to **remap** the pose topic that you get from MoCap `/vrpn_client_node/<rigid_body_name>/pose` directly to `/mavros/vision_pose/pose`.
|
||
Note that there is also a `mocap` topic that MAVROS provides to feed `ATT_POS_MOCAP` to PX4, but it is not applicable for EKF2.
|
||
However, it is applicable with LPE.
|
||
|
||
:::info
|
||
Remapping pose topics is covered above [Relaying pose data to PX4](#relaying_pose_data_to_px4) (`/vrpn_client_node/<rigid_body_name>/pose` is of type `geometry_msgs/PoseStamped`).
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
Assuming that you have configured EKF2 parameters as described above, PX4 now is set and fusing MoCap data.
|

|
||
You are now set to proceed to the first flight.
|
||
|
||
## 第一次飞行
|
||
|
||
After setting up one of the (specific) systems described above you should now be ready to test.
|
||
The instructions below show how to do so for MoCap and VIO systems
|
||
|
||
### MoCap First Flight
|
||
|
||
Be sure to perform the following checks before your first flight:
|
||
|
||
- Set the PX4 parameter `MAV_ODOM_LP` to 1.
|
||
PX4 will then stream back the received external pose as MAVLink [ODOMETRY](https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html#ODOMETRY) messages.
|
||
- You can check these MAVLink messages with the _QGroundControl_ [MAVLink Inspector](https://docs.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/qgc-user-guide/analyze_view/mavlink_inspector.html)
|
||
In order to do this, yaw the vehicle until the quaternion of the `ODOMETRY` message is very close to a unit quaternion. (w=1, x=y=z=0)
|
||
- At this point the body frame is aligned with the reference frame of the external pose system.
|
||
If you do not manage to get a quaternion close to the unit quaternion without rolling or pitching your vehicle, your frame probably still have a pitch or roll offset.
|
||
这种情况下不要再检查机架坐标系。
|
||
- Once aligned you can pick the vehicle up from the ground and you should see the position's z coordinate decrease.
|
||
Moving the vehicle in forward direction, should increase the position's x coordinate.
|
||
While moving the vehicle to the right should increase the y coordinate.
|
||
In the case you send also linear velocities from the external pose system, you should also check the linear velocities.
|
||
Check that the linear velocities are in expressed in the _FRD_ body frame reference frame.
|
||
- Set the PX4 parameter `MAV_ODOM_LP` back to 0. PX4 will stop streaming this message back.
|
||
|
||
If those steps are consistent, you can try your first flight.
|
||
|
||
Put the robot on the ground and start streaming MoCap feedback.
|
||
Lower your left (throttle) stick and arm the motors.
|
||
|
||
此时,设置为位置控制模式。
|
||
如果切换成功,飞控会闪绿灯。
|
||
绿灯代表:你的外部位置信息已经注入到飞控中,并且位置控制模式已经切换成功。
|
||
|
||
Put your left stick at the middle, this is the dead zone.
|
||
With this stick value, the robot maintains its altitude;
|
||
raising the stick will increase the reference altitude while lowering the value will decrease it.
|
||
Same for right stick on x and y.
|
||
|
||
Increase the value of the left stick and the robot will take off,
|
||
put it back to the middle right after. Check if it is able to keep its position.
|
||
|
||
If it works, you may want to set up an [offboard](offboard_control.md) experiment by sending position-setpoint from a remote ground station.
