Andrew Tridgell 2b6af43c92 AHRS: removed AP_AHRS_Quaternion
this AHRS backend is causing compiler errors with the Arduino build
environment on windows. The quaternion AHRS backend is currently not
being developed/supported anyway. We can resurrect it if someone wants
to start developing it again.

Andrew Tridgell cc0e8be85a AHRS: moved var_info[] into top level AP_AHRS class 2012-08-21 15:58:09 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell 89db3458c8 AHRS: added set_fast_gains() method
this will be used by arducopter on the ground

Andrew Tridgell 44852276da AHRS: added ahrs.yaw_initialised()
this allows the high level code to know if the AHRS driver has a
reliable yaw estimate

Andrew Tridgell 562069cbd7 AHRS: avoid a compiler bug in quaternion code
Having _wind in the AP_AHRS class causes a register allocation error
when building the Quaternion code with some versions of avr-gcc. Quite
bizarre.

Andrew Tridgell 2c7ab7c659 AHRS: added wind estimation code
this allows us to estimate the wind while we have GPS lock, then use
that estimate in the long term dead reckoning

Andrew Tridgell 708280511c AHRS: added long-term dead-reckoning
this uses airspeed (if available) or last GPS ground speed to update
our position estimate in AHRS
2012-08-11 12:00:31 +10:00
Andrew Tridgell e48b0f8558 AHRS: make airspeed sensor available to AHRS
this will be used for long term dead-reckoning

rmackay9 5a9211c278 AP_AHRS: removed var_info from AP_AHRS class (moved to AP_AHRS_DCM) 2012-07-28 14:16:56 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell e531061caa AHRS: re-instate new DCM drift correction code
This reverts commit 078489638d47fbaffde7c51249e36b5a8fc4ef9d.

Andrew Tridgell 8600ad8d7f AHRS: revert to the old drift correction algorithm
we need to work out why Craigs quad flipped today before we enable
this new drift correction

Andrew Tridgell 5370f9c411 AHRS: normalize the ge vector in drift correction, and use barometer
The normalisation ensures the error term scales uniformly with
different accelerations.

The barometer is used for vertical acceleration estimation

Andrew Tridgell 2600afe18a AHRS: implement Bills new drift correction algorithm

Andrew Tridgell 398a608b83 DCM: drop the 'drop z' method
the 'drop z' method reduced the impact of noise on omegaI, but it also
made us more sensitive to errors in accelerometer calibration and
scaling, as demonstated by the logs from Gabor here:

  http://diydrones.com/xn/detail/705844:Comment:834373

Simulation testing shows that the other noise suppression methods
applied in the DCM code, in particular the slope limiting on omegaI
the removal of the weighting and the upcoming use of a _omega_I_sum
buffer have reduced the impact of noise enough that we can now safely
include z in the acceleration calculation.

Andrew Tridgell a9de75156b AHRS: added AHRS_YAW_P parameter
this allows users to change the yaw gain in DCM

rmackay9 4dac4c4c11 AP_AHRS - changed parameter order to remove compiler warning 2012-04-09 17:37:11 +09:00
Andrew Tridgell 07b6f55122 AHRS: added missing AP_AHRS.h 2012-03-19 17:35:20 +11:00
