Andrew Tridgell 972bdcfa39 SITL: add magnetic field noise to the simulated compass 2012-03-28 20:55:27 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell dc127fe749 SITL: ensure we don't run the sitl timer twice
this caused problems with random()

Andrew Tridgell 2a011578f9 Compass: implement noise resistant varient of offset learning
This adds a large amount of noise robustness to the compass offset
learning algorithm, at a cost of 120 bytes of memory. The changes are
based on a long discussion with Bill Premerlani.

Andrew Tridgell 16f094a1c5 ADC: minor fix to the ADC Ch6() code
we don't need to add count any more, as floating point maths doesn't
need to round up

Andrew Tridgell a3d3dd86cf Compass: implement Bills new offset nulling algorithm
this seems to work much better than the old algorithm, converging
faster and more accurately. Even better, it has no linkage to DCM, so
no possibility of nasty feedback effects

rmackay9 cf1a6f8ab8 APM_RC - moved Force_Out0_Out1, Force_Out2_Out3 and Force_Out6_Out6 to APM_RC parent class because it's already implemented in the APM1 and APM2 child classes anyway 2012-03-25 21:13:31 +09:00
rmackay9 2324be7e68 Filter - added simple LowPassFilter (simple but it's possible to make errors with simple stuff too so might as well have one) 2012-03-25 16:15:25 +09:00

Andrew Tridgell 0b94b2e470 pysim: implement partial 3D acceleration support
The simulator flies very badly when using the full acceleration
code. I don't yet know if this is a bug in the simulation or a problem
with AHRS not handling acceleration for multicopters.

For now set the acceleration to be half a 'pure gravity' acceleration
and half from the full 3D calculation.

Andrew Tridgell 477b31fb0d Math: added mul_transpose() operation
this is equivalent to multiplying by m.transposed(), but is more
efficient

Andrew Tridgell ccfac19cef pysim: update the multicopter simulator with correct acceleration
this re-works the multicopter simulator in terms of rotation matrices,
and adds full acceleration support, which means it will include linear
acceleration affects and centripetal acceleration
2012-03-22 23:00:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 21c8351f2f pysim: added rotmat.py
this is a python library for rotation matrices, following the
conventions in AP_Math

Andrew Tridgell fb9790e1f4 Math: moved matrix multiple operations to .cpp file
this means we only link this in once, rather than for every use of
matrix multiply, which saves us some flash space

We need to be careful not to put large pieces of code in template
headers, as if the operation is used a lot, it costs us a lot of code
space

Andrew Tridgell e93b31c76b SITL: improve the simulated compass
this implements a much more accurate model of a compass using matrix
rotations, instead of trying to calculate components directly
