Things to do
Talk to Lance/Kiran about MCU selection (late next week after moving in)
Find criteria required for chips to run autopilot
criteria given so far
Ability to run freeRTOS → built in natively is preferred
Similar I/O
Ease of development and OS independence
Demonstrated CubeMX and CubeIDE to Kiran to show what Firmware is used to
HAL support would be nice as well
Similar memory and clock speeds (at least matches and we chilling ZP 1.0)
Talk to Shrinjay/Kevin about data to be sent between autopilot and jetson over USB (next wednesday)
2 things
Xbee vs OpenHD
What to send between CV and Firmware
Look into UavCan
