Multi-vehicle Simulation Framework
Besides the standard C and C++ libraries, MVS utilizes third party software available under the following licenses:
- Apache Xerces - Apache License 2.0
- Boost - Boost Software License 1.0
- CodeSynthesis XSD - GPL v2 or commercial
- Eigen - MPL v2
- Georgia Tech UAV Simulation Tool (GUST) - proprietay (no public distribution of sources)
- Qt - LGPL v2.1,LGPL v3, GPL v3 or commercial
- RTI Connext DDS Professional - commercial (free for academic use)
- SDL - zlib license
- VisiLibity - LGPL v3
- VRONI - commercial (free for academic use)
The sources of MVS itself and the related wrappers for third-party libraries are released under differing open-source licenses :
- MVS - Apache License 2.0
- AMG - Apache License 2.0
- Vroni Wrapper - LGPL v3
- VisiLibity Wrapper - LGPL v3
The use of commercial software that is available free of charge to academic researchers makes MVS available for free to academia. Unfortunately, the use of commercial third party software also means that withough those pieces MVS cannot be compiled correctly.
