Automatic mission/path creation using UWB beacons?

PX4 Autopilot
1

Hi people,

We are trying to create an autonomous indoor drone that can create and fly missions or paths from a UWB system, but we are all new to drone technology and have no clue where to start. Is automatic mission creation even possible? Would appreciate any and all help.

We are using ESP32 + DWM3k for the UWB system, connected to a raspberry pi with ardupilot, pixhawk and px4 for drone control.

Hi there.

Most likely its possible with you are trying to do.
Missions can be saved/uploaded and are simple .plan files, that are super easy to generate with a python script or simmilar. Use QGCs Plan view to get familliar.

However, I am a bit confused as to why you would have both Ardupilot and PX4?
