GAAS
GAAS is an open-source program designed for fully autonomous VTOL
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. Simulation support integrates lidar, stereo cameras, PX4, Gazebo, and AirSim environments. Its modular C++ architecture allows individual autonomy components to be replaced or extended. ...
