Sim2real is a recurrent challenge in robotics: despite the wide array of open-source solutions, end-to-end deployments often require painstakingly long integration of many different tools and frameworks.

This repo aims to provide a "batteries included" solution for flying multi-robot systems (in simulation and real-life).

Aerial autonomy stack (AAS) is an all-in-one software stack to:

- Develop multi-drone autonomy—with ROS2, PX4, and ArduPilot

- Simulate faster-than-real-time perception and control—with YOLO and 3D LiDAR

- Deploy in real drones—with JetPack and NVIDIA Orin

Runs on Ubuntu22/24, WSL. Requires Docker and an NVIDIA GPU.

Happy to hear feedback/answer questions/provide clarifications.
