CADRE’s next generation autonomy architecture is derived from heritage from A-PUFFER software, but uses F’ as the software framework with updated planners/schedulers, GNC and additional fault management to handle the challenging environments. The CADRE software is designed to be versatile and to minimize ground in the loop cycles to help further autonomous exploration for this and future missions.
CADRE plans to release, within the US via free-license, the software stack and hardware designs to help spur innovation and autonomous exploration of the Moon and beyond.
