Bim replied to Bim's discussion Indoor navigation with ArduCopter in ArduCopter User Group
"Thank you for the reply Randy.
Looks like there is no easy way for a C/C++ illiterate then, huh :)
1. I'd prefer the autopilot be responsible for velocity estimation, I'm guessing that if the companion computer would do that it'd add some latency.…"

Bim commented on Simon D. Levy's blog post ODROID + Flip32 Mini Quadcopter, Part II: Mounting and Flying the ODROID
"Ouch, that looks painful..
May I ask how did you control the FCU with the ODROID? Did you send 'RC override' messages?
By the way, Hard Kernel are selling the ODROID XU4, which is a bit bigger than the Raspberry Pi but much more powerful."

Hello everyone,I want to mount a Raspberry Pi and a camera module on my ArduCopter powered drone and have computer vision guide the drone's movement. Flying will be perform indoors so GPS isn't an option.I'd like my computer vision code to look for…

Bim commented on dronebohne's blog post 3DR X8+ | DroneKit | Vision System | Part 2
"If we're on the topic, does GUIDED mode requires GPS?
Is it possible to use this command without GPS (Using body frame, not NED of course)?"

Bim commented on Simon D. Levy's blog post ODROID + Naze32 autopylot
"Interesting, thank you for sharing!
How frequently can you send/receive messages to/from the FC ?
How is it compared (Performance wise) to controlling an APM from an ODROID?
Have you tried it with Oneshot125 ESC by any chance?
Trying to figure out…"

"Steve, this is really impressive!
If you're willing to share your quadcopter build I'm sure a lot of us would be happy to see it :)"

"If I understand your web page correctly - your drone carried the Gigabyte Brix computer and was still under 500 gr?
How much did the computer weigh?"

Hello all,How long would the IRIS+ x4 fly with about 600 grams of payload and the standard battery?I need to reach 7-8 minutes of flight time with about 600 grams of payload and wondering if the IRIS+ is up for the task.

Bim commented on Raviv Raz's blog post Percepto - Computing core designed for supercomputers used to enhance drones capabilities.
"Sweet!
A few questions,
What OS will be available?  What camera?
Could you elaborate on the API you mentioned?
I'm not familiar with the Tegra K1 SOC, can you use CUDA just like you would on a PC?
Code that was written for desktop GPUs would be…"

Bim commented on Emlid's blog post Navio+ and Odroid-C1: the most powerful Linux autopilot
"Are there any plans to add redundancy?
Add an ATMega on it so if the Linux kernel crashes the quad wouldn't crash with it?"

Bim commented on Darrell Burkey's blog post Flying with Linux at LinuxConf 2015
"@Víctor Mayoral
You could connect to your Odroid using the same serial ports you use in your PixHawk

Should've been more clear, I meant how would I access sensors and send commands from the BBB it self.
That depend on how you code your image…"

"Just watched the entire lecture and enjoyed every part of it.
Few questions from a novice,
Currently I'm accessing real time flight data and sending commands via mavlink (Pixhawk connected directly to an ODROID), how does it work on Linux APM? Can a…"
