Tutorials

Kubos users develop custom flight software for their OBCs using the KubOS libraries.

This custom software is then used to communicate with the various core and hardware services in order to interact with the system and execute mission logic.

This series of tutorials will walk a new user through the major steps required to program a mission and then communicate with a system once it is in-flight.

Note

You should be able to go through these tutorials from either a local dev environment or an instance of the Kubos SDK

Mission Development Tutorials

After the completion of these tutorials, the user will have created a mission application capable of querying their hardware for telemetry data and then storing that data into the telemetry database.

• Creating Your First Mission Application
• Running a KubOS Project on an OBC

System Interaction Tutorials

These tutorials cover all of the ways a user might directly interact with a system from the ground.

There is no coding required for these actions, however some scripting may used for example purposes.

The first two tutorials may be run entirely locally. The file and shell service tutorials are written to be used with an OBC.

• Registering an Application
• Scheduling an Application
• Querying the System
• Transferring Files
• Creating a Shell Connection

Advanced Tutorials

Important system tutorials which should be approached after mastering basic system interaction.

• Creating Your Communications Service
