# Drone Landing Simulation (GPS-Denied)
|
|
|
|
A GPS-denied drone landing simulation using relative sensors (IMU, altimeter, camera, landing pad detection) with **PyBullet** and **Gazebo** simulators.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
### Standalone Mode (Any Platform - No ROS 2 Required)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
source activate.sh # Linux/macOS
|
|
. .\activate.ps1 # Windows
|
|
|
|
python standalone_simulation.py --pattern circular --speed 0.3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### PyBullet + ROS 2 (Two Terminals)
|
|
|
|
**Terminal 1 - Simulator:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
python simulation_host.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Terminal 2 - Bridge + Controllers:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run_bridge.py --pattern circular --speed 0.3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Gazebo + ROS 2 (Two Terminals - Linux/WSL2)
|
|
|
|
**Terminal 1 - Launch Gazebo + Bridge:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
ros2 launch gazebo/launch/drone_landing.launch.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Terminal 2 - Run Controllers:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run_gazebo.py --pattern circular --speed 0.3
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Network Setup (Remote Simulator)
|
|
|
|
Run simulator on one machine, controllers on another:
|
|
|
|
**Machine 1 (with display):**
|
|
```bash
|
|
python simulation_host.py # Listens on 0.0.0.0:5555
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Machine 2 (headless):**
|
|
```bash
|
|
python run_bridge.py --host 192.168.1.100 # Connect to Machine 1
|
|
``` |
