Andrew Tridgell 44755bf3ce AP_Baro: improved barometer averaging
this changes the barometer calculations to floating point. On a MS5611
this is actually about twice as fast as the previous 64 bit
calculations, but gains us more accuracy as we are able to take
advantage of sub-bit precision when we average over 8 samples.

Andrew Tridgell 53e950531e Baro: added get_altitude() and get_climb_rate() interfaces
this allows the barometer driver to calibrate and return altitude and
climb rate values. This will be used by the AHRS drift correction code
for vertical velocity

The climb rate uses a 5 point average filter

rmackay9 bad6591e6d AP_Baro: fixed comment to clarify that every-other call updates temperature or pressure 2012-06-03 17:31:17 +09:00
rmackay9 f3eb15167c AP_Baro - removed unnecessary 2 element average filtering of pressure (there is a 4 or 5 element average filter in arducopter code itself, two places is messy)
- also removed unused _offset_press variable

rmackay9 ed0d1da4f5 AP_Baro - added average filter for temperature to replace broken filter
- added average filter (for last two values) for raw pressure
        - changed some "long" to int32_t and "unsigned long" to uint32_t

Jason Short 13e9608fb8 Consolidated Barometer pressure sensing to a single filter based on Randy's new filter class. 2012-03-08 23:13:04 -08:00
Jason Short 34cf1e8fb3 Updated on Barometer - increased the Temp filtering and decreased the pressure filtering to and get less temp noise, faster response from pressure. I'm filtering the Climb rate differently now, so this higher pressure noise should not hurt the derivative calcs at all now. 2012-03-06 20:55:35 -08:00
Randy Mackay 98f3386ea0 Arduino 1.0 - changed all #includes of "WProgram.h", "wiring.h" and "WConstants.h to "Arduino.h".
Modified FastSerial's write function to return size_t (number of bytes written).

Andrew Tridgell 817e7442bd baro: fixed an integer overflow issue at high altitudes
the averaging array was using 16 bit numbers, but we are storing
numbers with 19 significant bits. That caused overflow at high
altitude, and some very interesting altitude graphs!

Thanks to Michael Oborne for spotting this in a log

Andrew Tridgell 2960abf41f I2C: convert barometer library to new I2C library
this also adds a healthy attribute and error checking

Pat Hickey 3d882c4d49 AP_Baro : Add init( AP_PeriodicProcess * ) method to interface & implementations
AP_Baro_MS5611 and AP_Baro_BMP085 implement the interface, with stubs only
2011-12-11 15:21:10 -08:00
Pat Hickey d5386b8bb8 AP_Baro_BMP085: move apm2_hardware flag from init to constructor. 2011-12-11 15:21:10 -08:00
Pat Hickey 6710cf5c5a Wire and SPI Init: move to sketch system.pde from libraries
* Wire.begin removed from AP_Baro_BMP085::init()
* SPI.begin  removed from AP_Baro_MS5611::init()
* SPI.begin  removed from AP_InertialSensor_MPU6000::hardware_init()

* Both Wire.begin and SPI.begin added very early in init_ardupilot in
  ArduCopter/system.pde and ArduPlane/system.pde

Pat Hickey 12222550cf AP_Baro_BMP085: Delete commented out code
* If its important to get old code back, thats why version control exists
