altos: Move micropeak sources around

2013-09-15T21:11:50+00:00

This sticks the micropeak sources in appropriate directories, rather than in the micropeak product directory so that they can be shared with future micropeak-style products. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Add Kalman filter to MicroPeak

2013-01-16T23:21:24+00:00

This filters altitudes more accurately and also allows tracking of acceleration, which is used to discard height data generated by ejection charge noise Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

micropeak: Record samples before boost detect

2013-01-12T17:45:31+00:00

This saves a ring of 16 samples while waiting for boost, and then goes back through those looking for the first sample higher than the ground and writes the remaining ones to the log so that we get a more complete log of the flight Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Add distinct LED pattern before writing log data

2012-12-18T08:39:37+00:00

Otherwise, the whole log looks like a an extra altitude digit. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Make micropeak 'serial' interface work

2012-12-18T06:58:49+00:00

I prototyped the mpserial interface on a breadboard and tuned the circuit to register the LED correctly. Then adjusted the serial code to send bits at the right speed and format. The logging contents are now in hexdecimal with a CCITT CRC-16 computed to verify correct reception. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Log baro readings for MicroPeak

2012-12-14T19:11:39+00:00

This logs barometric data every 192ms (more or less) to the 504 remaining bytes of internal EEPROM storage in the ATtiny85. This provides 48.192 seconds of logging. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Log in-flight data for MicroPeak

2012-12-12T19:03:20+00:00

This logs the low 16 bits of the pressure value to the remaining on-chip eeprom. It can be read out with a standard AVR programming dongle. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: Tim Van Milligan suggestion for µP -- delay before showing last flight

2012-12-12T07:43:30+00:00

This gives the user time to move their finger out of the way of the LED. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos: micropeak LED is orange now, not blue

2012-11-18T18:35:39+00:00

Change the names around to match Signed-off-by: Keith Packard

altos/micropeak: Set boost detect to 10m. Add 30s boost delay.

2012-10-30T00:13:23+00:00

Wait for 30 seconds before even starting look for boost. This provides an opportunity to close up the airframe, potentially causing pressure gradients seen by the baro sensor. Also, require a 10m vertical motion before triggering boost. This should limit accidental boost detect while capturing any actual flights. Signed-off-by: Keith Packard
