Notes

Development of GroundSend module

  • Class

    • decodes the bytes of data and formats them to ASCII

  • Worker function

    • Should consist of a callback function

 

  • data protocol tentative format (for testing purposes)

  • similar to fltconnsend & recieve

Development of GroundRecieve module

  • Class

  • Worker function

  • same requirements as above





Data Telemetry x GUI interface class

  • decoded data from GroundRecieve must be sent to GUI to be displayed real time and get data from the GUI to be sent to GroundSend

  • will have to also have meeting with GUI team to discuss how they want to recieve this data

 

-check if GUI backend plans have been created

Command/Comms Class

Main modules that instantiates processes and connects to XBees

 

 

Unit test for XBeesInterface class

 

 

 

Integration Tests

  • Use Xbees with arduino to simulate the process and validate if the code works

CV & Firmware

 

Documentation

 

 

 

Develop data format protocol for sending data to and from the flight controller

 

*(Firmware)

  • meeting? (contact someone from firmware)

 Action items

Discuss the need for worker function when we alr have command module (handles all main processes)
