To use the proposed ROS package, the following components are required to be installed in the Raspberry Pi 3: Linux, ROS and mavros. Therefore, a version of Ubuntu MATE from Ubiquity Robotics (see https://downloads.ubiquityrobotics.com/), which already includes ROS, is a preferable choice.

Odroid XU4 is used to demonstrate the feasibility of our work in a realistic setting with actual hardware configuration, a single-board device. As stated in Section 3, the device is based on Samsung Electronics' Exynos-5422 MPSoC. Exynos-5422 consists of eight processors, each divided into two clusters of four processors. By default, the operating system will set the A7 at a frequency range of 200 MHz to 1.5 GHz, while the A15 processors have a frequency range of 200 MHz to 2.0 GHz. The operating system for the board is a lightweight distribution of Ubuntu-mate 16.04. It provides greater control over the processors and can quickly change the configuration of the processor with simulator programs or by manipulating the Linux kernel.
