PyPilot - Open Source Marine Autopilot

Installation

Clone the repository by running the following command:

git clone https://github.com/pypilot/pypilot

Dependencies

You could install the dependencies with the following command:

sudo python3 setup.py install

Configuration

You may want to run pypilot as a service, see the scripts/debian directory

Usage

Most of the scripts can be run individually as standalone or test programs, some function as clients, other as servers

servers (only one executes at a time)

These server scripts can be run as tests:

  • execute this script directly

pypilot -- autopilot

instead of running the complete autopilot these scripts provide a server with specific functionallity.

pypilot_boatimu -- imu specific to boat motions includes automatic 2d/3d calibration and alignment of magnetic sensors * useful for testing the imu (gyros) or even just reading gyros

pypilot_sensors -- test sensor inputs only reads nmea0183 from serial ports or from tcp connections, and multiplexes the output to both nmea0183. listed on tcp port 20220 by default * convert and multiplex nmea0183 data

pypilot_servo -- use to test or verify a working motor controller is detected, can be used to control and calibrate the servo

clients (run as many of these to connect to a server):

pypilot_control -- simple interface to command autopilot

pypilot_calibration -- interactive gui for all autopilot calibrations

pypilot_kivy -- work in progress kivy control app

pypilot_client_wx -- graphical client (wx widgets)

pypilot_scope -- plot client with wx widgets (for checked listbox)

pypilot_client -- console client

pypilot_hat -- autopilot control interface using GPIO pins, with web configuration on port 33333

pypilot_web -- python flask application for browser autopilot control
