IR camera different settings tested on ground, IR beacon is still pretty bright (min exposure time + max ISO) OneDrive
Cluster estimation integrated and tested
MAVlink communication in development
IR camera integration is almost complete, just testing remains
Will push more for bright spot detection once we lock in camera settings, although we have preliminary algorithms ready (not integrated)

Camera test plan:

Set higher low shutter speed (ExposureTime) to make images image darker (called
Play around with iso values to see what allows for beacon to be seen (AnalogueGain) without noise
Will be ready for flight test once proper values to set are found. Most likely will have some preset values for the camera settings and try them to see which shows up the best.

Camera testing progress:

Settings were found at Wednesday’s worksession
- Used ExposureTime:36, AnalogueGain:16, Brightness:0

...

Thursday’s worksession, not enough time to properly test, team members needed help with their tasks
- Set to take pictures at different ExposureTime values, need to see which value makes the most sense to use
Will test a bit more on Friday, hopefully there is some sun to test in, otherwise will test in cloudy weather and see how it turns out.
