Sphinx offers several ways to observe flight data while (or after) a simulation is running. Visualize flight data in real-time via your Web browser You can connect a smartphone running FreeFlight Pro ( Android/ iOS) or FreeFlight Mini ( Android/ iOS), or a Parrot Skycontroller 2 to directly interact with the simulation environment.įor drones equipped with a camera, Sphinx may retransmit its flow, in streaming, to your smartphone’s screen.

#Features Modify drone’s behaviour and the physics of the environment at runtimeĪn important feature of Sphinx is the control of the behaviour of simulated drone’s hardware/physical components like the drone sensors and physical phenomena such as atmospheric conditions or wind velocity.įor example, if you need to test your application with a drone that has no GPS signal, you just need to deactivate the GPS component for the desired duration. Sphinx currently supports the following drones: The Parrot drone firmware is run in an isolated environment well separated from the host system.
The system is built on the open-source Gazebo multi-robot simulator to simulate the physical and virtual surroundings of the drone. It provides a software-in-the-loop (SITL) simulation where the drone and its environment are completely virtualized. Sphinx is a free simulation tool initially thought to cover the needs of Parrot engineers developing drone software.
