Using the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4® Autopilots, you can access autopilot peripherals from MATLAB® and Simulink®. With Embedded Coder®, you can also automatically generate C++ code and use the PX4 toolchain to build and deploy algorithms tailored specifically for Pixhawk® and CubePilot flight management units (FMU), all while incorporating onboard sensor data and other PX4-specific services. You can use the support package to work with CubePilot boards such as Cube Blue, Cube Orange + and Cube Orange and Holybro manufactured Pixhawk boards such as Pixhawk 6x, Pixhawk 6c, Pixhawk 4 etc. PX4 is a trademark of Lorenz Meier.

Features
  • Out of the box support for Cube Orange, Cube Orange+, Cube Blue, Pixhawk 6x, Pixhawk 6C, Pixhawk 1, Pixhawk 2.1 (Cube), Pixracer and Pixhawk 4. For boards not listed here, see this documentation on how to use your board with the support package.
  • Automated C++ Code - generation, Integration of code generated from Simulink with the general PX4 architecture Deployment, and Execution on the Pixhawk boards.
  • Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) Simulation support with the PX4 Autopilot.
  • Example in Simulink that shows the UAV Dynamics including the sensor simulation communicated to PX4 Autopilot in Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) Simulation.Supports Quadcopter, Fixed-wing and VTOL airframes.
  • Deployment support for PX4 on host computer as PX4 Host Target which the PX4 community refers to as PX4 Software-In-The-Loop (PX4 SITL).
  • Support for Code verification and validation using the Processor-In-Loop simulation.
  • Simulink library to access the Pixhawk peripherals such as ADC, PWM, Serial CAN and I2C.
  • Simulink library for the uORB middleware.
  • Simulink library to get data from the PX4 sensor and estimator module such as Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Magnetometer, Battery, Vehicle Attitude and GPS.
  • Data logging support from Simulink on the SD card while flying.
  • Communicate with the Pixhawk hardware and PX4 Host Target using Connected I/O mode.
  • Real-Time parameter tuning and signal acquisition using Monitor & Tune.
