PX4 is used in a wide range of use-cases, from consumer drones to industrial applications. It is also the leading research platform for drones and has been successfully applied to underwater vehicles and boats. PX4 provides a standard to deliver drone hardware support and software stack, allowing an ecosystem to build and maintain hardware and software in a scalable way. Drone development is complicated, and how to get started can be daunting and hard to navigate. These tutorials and...

...The software provides manual-assisted modes as well as fully autonomous missions with waypoint navigation and scripted behavior. Advanced failsafes can react to lost control links, low batteries, positioning problems, and other system failures. MAVLink telemetry connects vehicles with ground stations and companion computers for configuration, monitoring, and mission control. Extensive logging, sensor integration, camera control, scripting, and hardware support make it suitable for hobby, research, and commercial robotics.

FASTER is a research-grade 3D trajectory planner for autonomous navigation in unknown environments. It was developed for both aerial robots and ground vehicles that must move safely while new obstacles are discovered. The planner continuously builds safe and unknown-space trajectory segments rather than assuming the environment is fully mapped. Optimization is used to generate dynamically feasible paths while maintaining safety constraints. The project integrates with ROS, Gazebo, MAVROS,...

GAAS, or Generalized Autonomy Aviation System, is an open-source autonomy framework for drones, VTOL aircraft, and experimental flying-car research. It focuses on robust autonomous navigation using lidar rather than relying primarily on vision. The system includes mapping, HD-map localization, path planning, obstacle handling, and aircraft-control modules. Localization components include NDT and ICP approaches, with GPU acceleration available for selected algorithms.

...Our long-term vision is to implement GAAS in autonomous passenger carrying VTOLs (or "flying cars"). The first step of this vision is to make Unmanned Aerial Vehicles truly "unmanned", and thus make drones ubiquitous. We currently support manned and unmanned multi-rotor drones and helicopters. Our next step is to support VTOLs and eVTOLs.
