Status Updates: 11/06/09¶
Weeks of 10/31/09 - 11/06/09
- Subversion - Chris
- Allows multiple people to work on same code, projects
- Central copy, upload and download changes to your local, working copy
- Easy way to distribute updates, make sure everyone is using the same version
- Allows multiple people to work on same code, projects
- SURG - Formation Control - Nico, Austin
- Three formations: Circles, Secret Service, Dynamic Formations
- See link for details
- ADC Prescalar Testing - Evan
- Once every 500ms at different (constant) voltage levels
- Constantly (stress test, see if heat introduces noise) at different voltage levels
- Constantly over extended period of time (5 minutes) at different voltage levels
- Varying input voltage over extended period of time (use function generator)
- Remove Analog Loop - James, Evan
- Timer-based ADC Scheduling
- Change analog_get8 to return a UINT8 instead of an INT (we only need 8 bits, not 16)
- Rangefinders
- Merge new look-up table into Trunk - Dan
- Test newly installed rangefinders - Megan, Dan
- Filter (averaging, exponential averaging, butterworth, ideal low-pass, median) - Emily, John
- Using MATLAB to analyze the various filters - conclusive results hopefully next week
- Freq Responses
- Impulse Responses
- Truncated Impulse Responses
- Output Signals from Truncated Impulse Responses
- Using MATLAB to analyze the various filters - conclusive results hopefully next week
- Makefile Architecture Rewrite - David
- Re-architect Makefile structure in repository to use centralized model
- Changes to central makefile will immediately affect all linked makefiles
- Auto-rebuild of library when changes are made to source files
- Option to force rebuild, if you think it's needed ("make library")
- Changes currently applied only in the unit test directory
- will be applied to entire repository after a week of testing
- Re-architect Makefile structure in repository to use centralized model
- Library/Wireless Clean-up - David, Chris, James, Brad, Evan, Ben, Abe
- Two modes (fast & reliable, like UDP & TCP)
- Automatic error checking, resending packets
- Init Function Clean-up
- See link for more details
- Add Wireless Documentation to Website - see here
- Two modes (fast & reliable, like UDP & TCP)
- Get new XBee-to-USB boards
