Andrew Tridgell 007a6b8958 AP_Param: added special handling for Vector3f
We would like to be able to use Vector3f as a parameter while exposing
the individual elements of the vector as MAVLink parameters. This
change to AP_Param makes that possible, by giving AP_Vector3f a dual
personality

Andrew Tridgell 1d95137b71 SITL: added -C option to desktop mode
this allows running APM to stdout, which is useful for test sketches

Andrew Tridgell c63ca9c697 DCM: tidy up use of error_course and in_motion
in_motion is not a good name now it is also used for the compass

The error_course and heading component values don't need to be part of
the DCM object, they can be on the stack to reduce the memory usage a bit

Andrew Tridgell d5b619218c DCM: use rotation_matrix_from_euler() to calculate initial yaw
When we first get a compass reading or we first start motion we need
to setup the DCM matrix with the right yaw. This uses
rotation_matrix_from_euler() to get a DCM matrix corresponding to our
current roll/pitch, but with the correct yaw

Andrew Tridgell 48cad8bc25 DCM: use rotation_matrix_from_euler() in matrix reset
this makes the code a bit easier to read
2012-02-24 11:54:11 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5009679617 DCM: use calculate_euler_angles() to get eulers from DCM
this makes the code a bit easier to understand
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell df6013616e AP_Math: added rotmat <-> euler functions
these will make the dcm matrix manipulation easier to understand
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 50f85835bd Compass: ensure we don't produce NAN values for compass heading
this leaves the previous heading values alone if we are at a pitch of
exactly 90 or -90, at which point we can't compute a meaningful
heading
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 8190204287 AP_Math: added safe_sqrt() function
this function will never return NAN. It will return zero for negative
numbers.
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 0acea11152 DCM: tidy up the nan checking in DCM
use is_nan() on the matrix rather than just on c.x, and add
safe_asin() to the (unused) OUTPUTMODE==2 code.
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell b4c8d6491a DCM: added matrix recovery on reset
when we get a bad DCM error we can recover a matrix corresponding to
the current attitude, making it more likely that the aircraft will be
able to recover
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 1a32ececb4 AP_Math: added a safe_asin() function
this adds range checking to asin()
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7dd909a16b AP_Math: added is_nan() methods to vector3f and matrix3f 2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
Jason Short 2a4b7facaa added set integrator 2012-02-23 09:38:08 -08:00
Andrew Tridgell 8707965c15 DCM: changed the sense of floating point range comparison
This allows us to detect NaN, otherwise NaN values were considered 
'in range'
2012-02-23 11:41:26 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9caa4aeb44 DCM: range check the matrix before calculating pitch
The asin() in the pitch calculation can only take values between -1
and 1. This change ensures that the value is in range, and if it isn't
then we force a normalization. If that fails we reset the matrix
2012-02-23 08:16:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 13693e1a04 DCM: reset more values on renorm blowup
when DCM blows up, we need to reset a lot more variables to ensure
that any NaN values don't persist
2012-02-23 08:16:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 5cfe1ad5dc DCM: remove the taylor expansion optimisation for renormalisation
The sqrt() costs about 44usec on a 2560, which is small enough for us
not to worry about the speed.

This also changes the range of values where we declare a blowup to
much less likely, which means we can cope with larger delta_t glitches
2012-02-23 08:16:08 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell f30c721886 AP_Param: added ParamToken type for variable list traversal 2012-02-19 17:05:28 +11:00
Jason Short 669e8e34ea added a limit to range output 2012-02-18 21:08:17 -08:00
Randy Mackay 0b369cf78b Optflow - added reference to FastSerial to resolve compile error on Arduino 1.0.
also removed reference to DCM (no longer required) and removed some old code.

Andrew Tridgell 2472f0a2f3 SITL: increase the amount of noise in the simulated ADC
this increases the noise to 2 bits, which actually can have the effect
of improving accuracy, as it leads to better averaging
2012-02-18 19:27:15 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 9602b1f91b DCM: only add in centripetal accel if we have GPS lock
if we don't have a GPS or the GPS doesn't have a good lock then we
can't rely on the ground speed for adjusting the acceleration vector
2012-02-18 19:27:15 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 371a91cfcf IMU: move _sensor_cal to general IMU class
this makes it available both in shim and INS subclasses
2012-02-18 10:51:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 2b8f0c3a48 AP_Param: moved AP_Vector3f and AP_Matrix3f declarations to AP_Math.h

Andrew Tridgell 70a135c47c AP_Param: fixed copy-assignment operators for AP_Param vectors 2012-02-18 10:51:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell e656928c01 AP_Param: added a set_and_save_ifchanged() method
this can be used to avoid the scan() in more frequenctly saved
variables, such as the MAVLink stream rates in APM
2012-02-18 10:51:57 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 6f080742b8 AP_Param: added an initialised() method
this will be used by the compass code

justinbeech 5255512bf9 Found free extra 256 bytes of RAM eliminate _clz use from libgcc
Believe it or not, changing / 2^31 to >>31 saved 256 bytes in the "d" segment.

The reason is that GCC version prior to 4.3.5 does not have a count_leading_zeros (clz) assembler macro, so it uses a 256 byte lookup table called _clz
The _clz table gets pulled in if you do 64 bit division.
This tiny change is the only place that we do long long division.
Changing to a shift saves 256 bytes of ram.

Jason Short 560985b509 made I term return in same pattern as D term 2012-02-16 22:09:22 -08:00
Andrew Tridgell 3fbb5a2d6c ADC: on channel overflow we should not zero last_ch6_micros
this happens every 64 seconds because of unused channels on the
ADC. Zeroing this creates a bad delta_t value for the DCM code.

Andrew Tridgell 63d768143d Compass: enable compass offsets for HIL compass

compass that is used for SITL, which makes for easier testing of
compass calibration

Andrew Tridgell c39914e734 DCM: added a SITL_debug() for DCM normalisation errors
I have seen normalisation errors during simulation runs, but have not
yet tracked down the cause. This log message may help track things
down.
2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7355f5613c added SITL_debug() macro
this can be used to print a message into the logs in the SITL
simulator. This will be used for critical conditions.

Andrew Tridgell 6c20ff9492 AP_Param: allow dumping of AP_Vector3f
this means the 'show' command in the CLI shows the compass offsets now

Andrew Tridgell 4ec3857476 GPS: change back to 4Hz for MTK GPS
this will hopefully fix the NO_GPS problems that have been regularly
happening in recent months. I will watch the logs carefully to see if
the problem recurs
