GTK+ based GCS

Overview

Ground Control Station is a GUI based on GTK+, the platform is a quadrotor developed several GTK+ widgets capable of display telemetry data. These widgets are made to look like to real flight instruments in order to allow easy feedbacks for the user/pilot.

Features:

-Input Device 3D connexion 6Dof Mouse form manual navigation
-Automatic mode GoTo (coordinate selected on map click)
-Comunication Socket streaming UDP
-GUI Compatible for any Linux machine with GTK+ (Debian Ubuntu ...)
-HUD with Artificial Horizon
-Incorporate GPS map show
-Suppoert mjpeg streaming for augmented reality HUD
-Telemetry control
-Hhow inertial data
-Compatible UAV client FoxG20

groundstation

The is the first version of the ground control station. In this version, the GUI is devided into 5 tabs. The first one showing the telemtry widgets needed. The second tab is quite the same as gpsd_viewer. The third tab provide an easy show UAV data, the fourth tab show the motor and battery status, and the final tab provide a set the comunication.

Hi guys,

yes,Acquiring images from a webcam on board autopilot(fox board g20 with arm9 cpu 400mhz http://www.acmesystems.it/foxg20/doku.php ),are sent via UDP,and finally appear in augmented reality in the UHD.

is not yet completed but soon I post everything on a quadcopter,I miss the place the code of the augmented stabilization sistem.

moreover, using a joystick as mouse 3d,

to manually control the UAV

to not use google maps, but instead osm-gps-map

when I tested and validated all code will insert new content and functionality.

seeking collaborators to help me, it's really a lot of work ...

p.s.(for now there is only the linux version.There is a small file to execute instructions in the package)
