Collaboration with Qualisys

Qualisys is a Motion Capture (Mocap) system manufacturer based in Gothenburg in Sweden. Since we are also based in Sweden, Qualisys have been able to visit us a couple of times and we now have one of their Motion capture system installed at the office. This collaboration allows us to have access to a Mocap system, something we did not have previously. It means that we can better support people using motion capture systems with Crazyflie.

We are currently implementing support for Qualisys in the Crazyswarm project. Crazyswarm currently supports a couple of motion capture system including Vicon and Optitrack, with the addition of Qualisys we and everyone with a Qualisys system will be able to fly swarms of Crazyflie in their mocap.

We are also planning on having a combined booth, Bitcraze and Qualisys, at IROS 2018. We are planning to demo flying both with the Mocap and with the Loco Positioning System. We will keep updating on this when we have more details.

We look forward to this collaboration since it will allow us to use and better support motion capture positioning for the Crazyflie.
