Drivers

  • IMU driver - Kelvin Feng

    • Implemented PR changes locally, working on compilation issues

    • Hardy Yu look at the pr once its up

    • not too many updates

    • new PR to be push tonight

    • still struggling with compilation

 

  • Sensor Fusion - Polly Liu

    • no attendance, no update (busy with job apps?), will follow upNo update from Polly w/ 6 axis IMU

    • (Liam Suter) starting on 9 axis IMU

 

  • GPS - Ria Prakash

    • have not started yet, still working on Rangefinder driverNo show, no update

    • Still working on sensor cluster

 

 

Attitude Manager Anthony Luo

  • Anthony busy this week, no updates

  • blocked by IMU and sensor fusionSame as last week. Waiting on sensor fusion and IMU

System Manager Hardy Yu

  • no updatesHardy will try to finish up during the reading week

  • Looking for volunteers to help (it's a good idea to join!)

 

Telemetry Manager Yarema Dzulynsky

  • Larry Pan working to modify TM to have its dependent objects (like GroundStationComms & MavlinkTranslator) be created before the TelemetryManager object and injected into the constructor instead of created in the TelemetryManager constructor.

    • Yarema Dzulynsky Continue to plan the next tasks after the dependency injection task is complete. Note: Since the DI task will be modifying code in a lot of places, others working on TM right now would cause significant merge conflicts. Therefore, other tasks will be available when DI injection complete and merged.

    • Not many updates

    • Larry Pan busy with exams, block on critical component

    • will be able to working it starting reading week

    Path Manager Ayoung Eun

    • Allan Su is working on implementing vector lending/takeoff logic we had in Zp1 into Zp3.5. Currently he’s researching how we could take off/landing using either previous codes/or need new codes assuming that our inputs are stored in queues.

    • We will be using FreeRTOS queues.

    • Wondering if we should start developing communication methods from TM to PM? (By communication I mean methods for TM to interact with PM) if needed.

    • Looking to onboard Ben Carnes on the task that Allan is on.Research is in progress Landing / Takeoff Research

    • Need a discussion about SF because I have some misunderstanding about it

    • Some question for thoughts: Does PM calculate the speed? Or does AM computes the speed

      Should still PM generate waypoints for landing/takeoff? (For cruising state TM generated next waypoints)

     

    Infrastructure

    • Compiling

      working on improving compiling with STM32, able to work on it this week now that interviews are over, good chance it is done by next week unless I find anything unexpected Roni Kant

      Roni Kant

      • likely easier with the new arch, switching over

      • hooking onto Derek Tang cmake

    • Core Dump Kabir Verma

      • continuing research: need to find a way to capture stack trace

      • investigate ARM CoreSight? busy with exams

      • not too much progress

     

    ZP Validation Image

    • Eric Su busy as discussed last week

    • no updates

     

    • for foreseeable future

    • new task assignment?

    titleCAN Projects

    ESC (Jeffery Zhen)

    • still learning about the overall system

    • getting timer issues?

    • wrong pin configured, works on L5 now

    • DShot still not working for EE’s board (L4 based)

     

    Servo Tharun Ganeshram

    • no updates, will start working this weekend

    • deadline by Oct 11, anticipating hardware integration testingstill having trouble getting the Pixhawk to send servo data over CAN

    • use Saleae to check messages directly on the CAN line (via TX/RX on CAN adapter)

     

    Sensor Cluster Roni Kant

    • (Might be missing something, Henry, Yutong, Tochi, or Ria can also add any updates, but here's a general overview - Roni)

    • Magnetometer (Henry and Yutong Zhu) good progress on driver, have basic functions implemented and looking through the datasheet to config sensor appropriately. Likely ready to start testing on eval board soon (once we get them)

    • Barometer (Tochi Okoro) talked about how to implement drivers and how to read datasheets, she feels a lot more confident now and plans to create a first PR with sensor register read/writes by next week

    • Rangefinder (Ria Prakash) after discussion decided to use SDK for sensor driver, now working on using the SDK to configure sensor and get distance data

    • Created procurement chat, writing email right now and will hopefully have it sent by tomorrow

    • Would it be possible to add branch protection (1 approval requirement) to the sensor cluster repo just for safety sake so we don't accidentally push anything

     

    LED Board Folarin Fatola

    • Looked into using AP_Periph to generate the needed firmware, got local build running

    • Seems like there isn’t as much possibility for customization of the generated code as originally expected; requires more researcha

    LED Board Folarin Fatola

    • Nick still working on AP_Periph

    • Test code for flashing LEDs almost finished.

    • Anthony got all LEDs flashing on the Neo pixel board except for 1 (that's what we're looking into).

      • According to him, the problem might be that after sending data frames to the neopixels, the signal line goes high instead of low, which isn't supposed to happen.

    titleGroundside Infrastructure

    • no updates, Omer Sajid busy with job appswill start working on this in the “next few days“ and Jermey connected with Roni Kant

    • Testing env setup properly

    • Simulation worked once, never worked again (unhealthy AHRS - EKF being sus?)

    titleZeroPilot New Architecture

    • Derek Tang busy with personal things, so less progress than anticipated, KT videos not filmed yet

    • resolved challenges with GoogleTest. updates on POC github repo

    • will try to have videos up by Oct. 3Part 1 videos are up

    • Part 2 coming soon

    • PMs please find out the availability of your team. Let Derek Tang know and we will officially start tasks (finally)
