AP_Param: Make nested group recursion disableable by macro
...
* Eliminates recursive calls inside AP_Param.
This is important to Pat @ Galois, but not the project in general.
Recursion depth on these functions is bounded structurally using
existing nested group constructors (can't create loops in finite space)
and checked at init time

AP_Param: fixed v.load() on a sub-element of a AP_Vector3f
...
this isn't actually used at the moment in APM, but we should get it
right in case someone does try to load a single element of a vector

AP_Param: fixed setting of CAM_P_G in ArduCopter
...
the variable CAM_P_G has the same prefix as the CAM_P group. We want
to allow for parameters having a common prefix with a group, so we
need to keep searching after we've found a group that matches the
prefix

DCM: fixed the sense of the compass GPS test in initial yaw

we were only disabling null offsets when we didn't have a compass,
which doesn't make much sense!

Filter - added AverageFilter - this will be used in place of SumFilter because it removes the possibility of overflows

Compass: use constructor to set initial values for _learn and _use_for_yaw

this ensures they are set if you have MAG_ENABLE==0

DCM: disable compass null offsets when setting initial yaw
...
we need to ensure the compass null offsets code doesn't see a sudden
yaw change, or it will change the offsets by a large amount very
suddenly

Compass: catch the case of a user enabling a compass mid-flight
...
if a compass has not been initialised at startup we can't enable it
mid-flight, as we don't have the orientation

DCM: use the new use_for_yaw() compass method
2012-02-25 14:51:09 +11:00
664622523d
Compass: added COMPASS_LEARN and COMPASS_USE parameters
...
these allow you to control if the compass should be used for yaw and
if it should learn its offsets. This is useful for locking in compass
offsets once they are confirmed to be good, and for learning offsets
without using them in flights.
The default is to behave the same as previously, which is
COMPASS_LEARN=1 and COMPASS_USE=1

DCM: don't reset _have_initial_yaw for GPS heading unless very slow
...
wait till we reach 1m/s before we reset _have_initial_yaw. This
prevents us continually resetting the DCM matrix if our ground speed
is close to 3m/s.

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

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
2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00

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
2012-02-25 11:37:20 +11:00

DCM: use rotation_matrix_from_euler() in matrix reset

this makes the code a bit easier to understand
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
16ed8bc8f6
AP_Math: added rotmat <-> euler functions
...
these will make the dcm matrix manipulation easier to understand
2012-02-24 11:52:55 +11:00
c354879f1f
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

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
bad653f230
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
c8e6d03c67
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

AP_Math: added a safe_asin() function

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
57ffd00b69
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

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
156d98cb9f
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

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
