UAV Toolbox
UAV Toolbox provides tools and reference applications for designing, simulating, testing, and deploying drone, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and advanced air mobility (AAM) applications. You can design flight controllers, develop autonomy algorithms, and plan UAV missions. The Flight Log Analyzer app enables you to interactively analyze 3D flight paths, telemetry information, and sensor data.
You can generate UAV scenarios for desktop simulation and for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing of flight controllers and autonomy algorithms. You can simulate camera, lidar, IMU, and GPS sensor outputs in either a photorealistic 3D environment or a 2.5D simulation environment.
UAV Toolbox provides reference examples for applications such as autonomous drone package delivery using multirotor a UAV, and advanced air mobility with vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft. The toolbox also supports C/C++ code generation for rapid prototyping, HIL testing, and standalone deployment to hardware such as the Pixhawk® Autopilot (with Embedded Coder®).
