  • Page 3 Ardupilot stack. Please refer to Ardupilot Wiki for updates and more detailed information, https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-simple-object-avoidance.html Section 1 explains how to use Terabee’s standard Tower array to connect to Pixhawk platforms, and the parameters needed to activate the Ardupilot control avoidance law. Section 2 explains how to build your own collision avoidance array.

  • Page 7 Section 2: Build a custom array for collision avoidance You can build your own sensor array without the yellow Tower frame provided by Terabee. The Hub Evo option is the easiest option to use multiple sensors simultaneously. It enables you to connect up to eight TeraRanger Evo distance sensors, to synchronize distance measurements from each sensor, triggering these in a sequence which avoids crosstalk.
