AS2 Plugins

Aerostack2 is a modular framework, which means that it is possible to configure differents components to perform different tasks. In order to do that, Aerostack2 uses ROS 2 plugins. Plugins are libraries that are loaded at runtime. In this page, all avaliable plugins are listed.

Name	Description
Raw Odometry	This plugin use the raw odometry data from an external source, such as the aircraft or a onboard sensor.
Ground Truth	This plugin use the ground truth data from an external source, such as simulator or a external sensor.
Mocap Pose	This plugin use the pose data from an external source, such as a motion capture system, and compute the twist.
