openpilot is an open source, semi-automated driving system developed by comma.ai. openpilot operates as a replacement for OEM advanced driver-assistance systems with the objective of improving visual perception and electromechanical actuator control. It allows users to modify their existing car with increased computing power, enhanced sensors, and continuously-updated driver assistance features that improve with user-submitted data.
comma.ai was founded in September 2015 by George Hotz.[3] The first version of openpilot was revealed a few months later in a Bloomberg article, showing functionality on a 2016 Acura ILX.[4] The video and article instigated a cease and desist letter from the California Department of Motor Vehicles, claiming comma.ai was testing a self-driving car without a license.

openpilot was packaged into a small, shippable device called the "comma one", announced at TechCrunch Disrupt.[5] On October 27, 2016, NHTSA issued a Special Order to comma.ai demanding detailed information about the comma one, to determine if the device complies with legally required Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.[6] comma.ai responded in a tweet from Shenzhen, China, announcing the cancellation of the comma one.[7]
openpilot uses machine learning, trained with user driver data, to determine the safest path on the road. This improves perception on roads without lane markings vs. lane-centering by tracking current lane lines.
openpilot maintains a safe following distance from the vehicle ahead. It is capable of driving in stop-and-go traffic with no user intervention. It uses OpenStreetMap's road curvature and speed limit data to allow slowing on sharp turns and setting the vehicle's desired speed to the current speed limit on certain community-maintained forks of the main repository.
openpilot recognizes the driver's face; if the driver is distracted, openpilot warns the driver. If the driver is distracted for more than six seconds, openpilot decelerates the vehicle to a stop, and audibly alerts the user.
openpilot uses the model to change lanes when the user engages the turn signal: a nudge is required on the steering wheel to confirm the lane change. openpilot also interacts with the blind spot monitor on certain makes and models to block the lane change in the event a car is detected by the blind spot monitor.
At launch, openpilot supported the Honda Civic and the Acura ILX. Support for more vehicles and brands has been added through open source contribution.[17] The currently officially supported vehicles list contains more than 200 entries and can be checked on
comma.ai maintains the openpilot codebase and releases, and there is a growing community that maintains various forks of openpilot. These forks consist of experimental features such as stop light detection.
@ruouttaurmind I missed the part where you said you tried two computers the first time, sorry about that. Seems like it might be a board issue, you might find more knowledgeable folks on the openpilot forum.
I recently picked up a CC3D because I figured that I had tortured myself enough dealing with Arduinos and MPU6050s. At this point I feel no shame in buying an off-the-shelf flight controller. I chose the CC3D because it still runs open source software ( OpenPilot, or alternatives like CleanFlight ), and it's cheap! Amazon has them for about $20.
Introduction: This revision of the board has no onboard compass, which is designed for vehicles (especially multicopters and rovers) where the compass should be placed as far from power and motor sources as possible to avoid magnetic interference. (On fixed wing aircraft it's often easier to mount APM far enough away from the motors and ESCs to avoid magnetic interference, so this is not as critical, but APM 2.6 gives more flexibility in that positioning and is a good choice for them, too). This is designed to be used with the uBlox GPS with Compass (see option below), so that the GPS/Compass unit can be mounted further from noise sources than APM itself. The APM 2.6 is a complete open source autopilot system and the bestselling technology that won the prestigious 2012 Outback Challenge UAV competition. It allows the user to turn any fixed, rotary wing or multirotor vehicle (even cars and boats) into a fully autonomous vehicle; capable of performing programmed GPS missions with waypoints. Available with top or side connectors. Features:
Abstract In this study we are implementing a medicine drone delivery system using CC3D flight controller which is configured using Open pilot Ground Control Station software. The drone is optimized to deliver the medicine in rural areas, its location can be tracked using GPS together with the Blynk software. The location tracker have been carried out using NodeMCU. This drone can be of great use in certain regions where the geographical terrain is uneven and not fit for proper transportation, also in the areas where there is still lack of proper transportation services available.
The flight controller is the nerve center of a drone. Drone flight control systems are many and varied. From GPS enabled autopilot systems flown via two way telemetry links to basic stabilization systems using hobby grade radio control hardware, there is an open source project for you.
This is false, HostileLabs is a fork of Openpilot with a couple of the old openpilot devs that caused a lot of drama and to this day continue down that negative path, from experience with both groups, the openpilot project improved dramatically once they left. 2ff7e9595c
