Introduction to Development for Vertex One
Avular Vertex One is a versatile drone development platform that offers possibility to customize it for your unique use case by integrating custom hardware and software. At Avular, we have been using our own products daily, we are users as well as developers of Vertex One platform.
What once has been our internal development platform is now available for anybody to use to kickstart their research and development.
Development Resources
We believe in the power of research and development when provided with the right resources. This section documents the basics of how to start developing your application on the Vertex One, elaborating on both hardware and software integration. Further, development resources such as 3D models, electrical schematics and development tools have been made available in the download section.
Examples of Integrations
The following list mentions some of the developments we've integrated custom hardware and software on the Vertex One platform for highly specific use cases across primary and applied research, as well as industry.
This list is not exhaustive by any means, so please feel free to share with us what your application is and how you used the Vertex One to solve your problem!
