# Drone Landing Simulation (GPS-Denied)

Land a drone on a moving platform using only relative sensors.

## Quick Start

### Standalone (1 Terminal)

```bash
source activate.sh
python standalone_simulation.py --pattern circular
```

### Gazebo + ROS 2 (2 Terminals)

**Terminal 1:**
```bash
ros2 launch gazebo/launch/drone_landing.launch.py
```

**Terminal 2:**
```bash
source activate.sh
python run_gazebo.py --pattern circular
```

### ArduPilot GPS-Denied (2 Terminals)

**Terminal 1 - Gazebo:**
```bash
./scripts/run_ardupilot_sim.sh runway
```

**Terminal 2 - Controller:**
```bash
./scripts/run_ardupilot_controller.sh
```

## Installation

```bash
./setup/install_ubuntu.sh
./setup/install_ardupilot.sh  # Optional for ArduPilot
source activate.sh
```
