Meeting Notes:

 

System Manager

  • Blocked on SBUS Callback implementation + Arm/Disarm (Threshold will judge whether or not the drone is armed/disarmed)

  • Ready for test when the SBUS issue is solved.

  • DMA Callback used in SBUS driver. Once the buffer is completed, it will trigger the callback. The function calls itself by the interrupt. Idle callback is used for Mavlink. Ask SBUS for a data, if you get a new data, kick the watchdog.

Model Config

  • In process of reviewing by Aadi.

  • Continuing to add onto the documentation.

Altimeter

  • Can now extract information from sensors.

  • Draft for calculating airspeed complete but height is not added yet.

  • Recommendation: Simply make a new branch and develop in there.

  • Recommendation: Do unit test in parallel.

Rangefinder

  • Obtained TTL USB connector, got software and attempting to connect to the sensor.

  • Recommendation: Make sure it works on your computer and then hardware after.

Path Manager

  • Not much update. Neha is sad.

Telemetry Manager

  • Decoding and Encoding functions are finished.

  • Receive function almost finished.

  • Will have quick git crash course to prevent possible disaster.

  • Recommendation: Wire the TTL to the nucleo.

  • Recommendation: Hard iron calibrate the magnetometer. Take the measurements around you, use it to calibrate the magnetic field of the plane in respect to the Earth. Drone ritual, in short.

AM

  • Merged first PR. Can now get inputs to the attitude manager.

  • PR up for figuring how to unit test it.

Simulator

  • Stuck on generating MEX files,

  • Started working on getting sensor fusion into SimuLink.
