Explore the evolution and architecture of PX4, one of the most widely adopted open-source flight control stacks, in this 39-minute conference talk from the Linux Foundation. Discover how PX4 has transformed from a university project into a comprehensive modular, RTOS-based, Linux-compatible system designed to power diverse aircraft including quadcopters, VTOLs, and underwater drones. Learn about the broader Dronecode ecosystem and understand how supporting projects like MAVLink, MAVSDK, QGroundControl, and Pixhawk open standards collaborate to deliver a complete open-source stack for robotics and aerospace applications. Gain insights into real-time systems, communication middleware, and full-system integration across embedded Linux platforms, ROS 2 environments, and high-level autonomy deployments.
