altos: Rename 'core' to 'kernel'

2014-04-05T07:22:29+00:00

core remains a bad name to use -- dirvish skips files (and directories, it seems) with that name. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: HAS_LED is useless; remove it

2014-03-29T06:33:25+00:00

ao_flight was trying to decide whether to turn off the red LED by checking whether HAS_LED was defined. And yet, none of the flight firmware defines that anymore, except for easymini which defines it to zero. Remove all uses and defines of this value, substituting AO_LED_RED in ao_flight.c, which has to be defined for the ao_led_off call to work. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Use factory calibration for all acceleration computations

2014-01-15T07:29:59+00:00

The ground acceleration value will vary depending on the tilt angle of the airframe, which will result in incorrect acceleration computations during flight. This also avoids accidental boost detect when moving the airframe around in pad mode. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Add 'O' command for TeleMega orient testing

2013-12-28T18:18:53+00:00

Only present when HAS_FLIGHT_DEBUG is enabled, this command lets the user check the orientation tracking code by showing the current orientation and when the calibration values are reset. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: mma655x also needs ao_sensor_errors

2013-12-21T06:19:35+00:00

TeleMetrum has an MMA655X but no IMU, so it needs an explicit addition for sensor errors. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Complain about sensor self-test errors only in idle mode

2013-12-21T06:08:11+00:00

When the accelerometer says to go into pad mode, don't look for other sensor self test errors. Only look for sensor self test errors to choose between idle and invalid mode. This will prevent minor sensor self test errors from letting the rocket fly safely. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Try IMU self-test 10 times before giving up

2013-12-19T04:32:05+00:00

This should keep the device from failing to boot unless the IMU is actually broken. Oh, and if self test does fail, this places the flight computer in 'Invalid' state rather than panic. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Add orientation test when HAS_FLIGHT_DEBUG is set

2013-10-28T06:46:36+00:00

This just dumps the current orientation to stdout so you can monitor it in real time Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Add gyro-based orientation tracking

2013-10-25T11:05:09+00:00

This tracks the angle-from-vertical as an additional input to the pyro channels. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Merge GPS logging into a single function

2013-10-15T05:41:43+00:00

Create a new global, ao_gps_new, which indicates new GPS position and satellite data. Use ao_gps_new as the new sleep/wakeup address. Merge the separate gps position/satellite logging tasks into a single function which waits for new data and writes out the changed values. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard
