This centralized namespace header encourages centralizing things on
umbrella headers that are a pain to maintain. Force each part of
AP_HAL_Linux to include what is used.
While at it, do some whitespace cleanups and minor changes to adhere to
coding style.
Implementation of the PX4 flow algorithm for ardupilot.
Based on the original PX4 Flow code, it has diverged a lot.
I have kept the license header since it is required.
I have removed all the unused and dead code on current implementation,
modified the code to make it clearer, re-indented it and changed
the way some params are calculated. It has been tested on PC and
on board and showed results that I assumed were OK. No optical flow
Loiter tests have been undertaken since it requires a Sonar which will
be added soon.
Limitations :
Some parts were written in ARM assembly and I rewrote them very naively
to get them to be more easily portable. A simple optimisation would be
to re-introduce assembly code for ARM as a separate asm file with
methods for fixed resolutions that would reduce a lot the amount of
calculation and memory read/writes. Then writing a version in NEON
assembly would even be more optimised and then maybe an Intel version.
Only compiled on Bebop, the constructor will need to be modified to
pass the pwm chip number and to create a PWM_Sysfs instead of a PWM_Sysfs_Bebop
in case it is used on a mainline linux board
It uses a heating resistor controlled by a pwm.
By changing the duty cycle of the pwm, we can control the temperature.
A simple PI algorithm is used in order to get to the correct temperature
fast enough and without too much overshoot
It is implemented as a member of the Util class in order not to make to much
modification to the current codebase
This commit changes the way libraries headers are included in source files:
- If the header is in the same directory the source belongs to, so the
notation '#include ""' is used with the path relative to the directory
containing the source.
- If the header is outside the directory containing the source, then we use
the notation '#include <>' with the path relative to libraries folder.
Some of the advantages of such approach:
- Only one search path for libraries headers.
- OSs like Windows may have a better lookup time.
this changes AP_Notify to use updates via notify.update() at 50Hz,
avoiding the need for the 1kHz timer. It also creates a parent class
for ToshibaLED so that the I2C and PX4 ToshibaLED drivers can be
abstracted out.
