PX4 Autonomy and Obstacle Avoidance - VOXL

VOXL Flight Enables the Smallest Autonomous Drones

VOXL is a companion computer that pairs with Flight Core or Pixhawk® flight controller for obstacle avoidance and GPS-denied (indoor) navigation. 

The VOXL advances the Snapdragon Flight and Qualcomm Flight Pro architectures for:

• PX4 Avoidance and Navigation
• ROS
• Snapdragon Navigator flight controller

Ready to Use Development Tools

Software Features:

• Open source Linux kernel, cross-compilers, PX4, ROS, OpenCV
• Docker build environment for CPU, GPU (OpenCL) and DSP (Hexagon SDK) heterogeneous computer vision and deep learning processing.
• Run Docker on VOXL target for improved portability and maintenance.
• Add cellular LTE connectivity for beyond visual line of sight (add-on).

• Snapdragon 821: Quad-core up to 2.15GHz, GPU, 2xDSP, Linux
• Video support: 3x MIPI cameras, UVC 
• Machine vision support: time synchronized IMU and cameras
• Additional I/O: WiFi, SPI, I2C, UART, GPIO
• Light weight, powerful, SWAP-optimized computing:
• PCB weight 18g
• Power Adapter weight 13g
• Cameras (6g)
• Power consumption 3-10W 

Datasheet

In this kit:

• MKIT-00001 - VOXL Core Board Kit ("Blue board", marked M0006)
• MKIT-00002 - VOXL Power Adapter Kit
• MKIT-00003 - VOXL Wi-Fi Antenna Kit

Note: The "new" kit contains M0006 Blue VOXL boards which include a new IMU (ICM20948) as the IMU. The "legacy" kit contains HA942 Green VOXL boards, which includes an EOL MPU9250. The "legacy" kit is identical to Qualcomm Flight Pro.
