ESC (Jeffery Zhen) continuing to work on the CAN component need to test DShot by plugging in a motorServo Tharun Ganeshram Fion Lin Herman Gahra Larry Pan Modifying code to handle interrupts LIFO instead of FIFO Continuing to optimize code, not much update. Hardy Yu will likely take this project to completion
Sensor Cluster Roni Kant Tochi Okoro finished code, will be testing in the bay in a few days with dev board Henry Wu Yutong Zhu Getting good results from sensors and different config options also seem to be working, working on getting DMA set up Aidan Fisher Most of the driver is written, working on implementing a specific mode for getting data from the rangefinder Ria Prakash Porting to cpp pretty much finished now, looking into different configuration options for the sensor and adding some more config options to the driver Roni Kant General update: Decided to use FreeRTOS with each sensor on a thread. Also going to implement the CAN driver hopefully this week when porting the CAN driver to L4 is done. Dev board is lost .. :( Need to decide if we are going to buy another sensor or just wait for the EE board to be done. Until then, working on turning driver into a cpp class. Henry Wu Yutong Zhu Sensor driver is basically done. Meeting with Roni Kant soon to work on integration with DroneCAN Aidan Fisher Logic flow written for UHD mode, finishing coding it Ria Prakash Moving to GPS driver task for now, so this task is put on hold Roni Kant Worked with CAN people on porting to l4
LED Board Folarin Fatola (Unlicensed) 6s Power Module Bryan Ma Harry Chen The doc for the CAN interface has definitely helped a bit in understanding the CAN architecture, and how it’s used in conjunction with DroneCAN We will still need to learn more about DroneCAN and Nucleo L5’s CAN connectivity in general, before we know how to receive a message from the FC. After that we’ll continue learning/doing from thereWe created a Confluence page for this task: 6S Power Module This doc condensed most of what we know and don’t know about the project, so it was super helpful Eventually, we would need to know more about the project specifics from the EE team, including:
The Google Slide on CAN would be pretty useful to reference later on, but right now more help on CAN would be helpful - there are still no tutorials to follow, so we are still scratching our heads for the most part.
