#autopilotone: A universal autopilot interface library.

##Features

• Standardizes guidance/navigatoin/control module interfaces so that they can be used on any autopilot running autopilotone.
• Limits access to components for security and better object-oriented design.
• Thread-safe: Can run on multi-threaded applications. Each component( guide, navigator, control) is assumed to run in a unique thread. Communication between modules is garunteed thread-safe through the use of mutex locks.
• Mutex locks are added per attribute, to ensure little time is wasted waiting for a lock. This had memory overhead of 1 byte/ attribute as a trade-off.

##Requirements

• C++
• OS:
  • Currently supports Unix/ Windows for pc build.
  • Planned support for ArduPilotMega.
  • Planned support for PX4

#Future Plans

• Add alternative subscription based mult-threading environment for comparison.

##Building for PC

mkdir build; cd build
cmake ..
make
cd ..

##Test with JSBSim (from source directory)
