Re: Proximity Sensor

Hi _Chris, Keep us informed on your progress with that proximity sensor. I'm very interested in putting one in my crazyflie but unfortunately I don't have much experience with electronics so it would be great if someone detailed the process of attaching one of these sensors to crazyflie. Thanks and ...

Re: libcflie

Thank you TheFrog4u. I did a little debug but it appears that: ms5611GetPressure(MS5611_OSR_256) is only different from 0 in very few circumstances (see attached image). These values are coming directly from the firmware stabilizer.c loop. It might be related to the sensor operating at a different f...

Re: libcflie

Jan, About the altitude information missing from the firmware, the sensor's documentation mentions that it only provides the pressure and temperature values (reference: http://www.meas-spec.com/downloads/MS5611-01BA03.pdf ) . From these we can calculate the altitude with a 10cm precision. It would b...

Re: libcflie

Just wanted to drop in my feedback on the lib so far. I've been testing it and the values seem fine although I'm using it on Windows but everything seems to be matching. The only thing that would be most useful to me was to have access to the altitude value but since you said that there's a problem ...

Re: libcflie

You need to install libusb 1.0. The following line should do it:
sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev

Re: Autopilot

I've just used it. It works like a charm. :)
I didn't use every single feature of it but I'm sure they'll work fine.
Took me a little while longer because I was setting it up for Windows as I prefer to develop on Windows than Linux.

Re: libcflie

Thanks for writing this lib.
I was going to build it myself if there wasn't one but since you already did the work I really appreciate it! :)

Re: Autopilot

I think I just found what I was asking for: http://forum.bitcraze.se/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=317
Gonna try to play with it and if I build something entertaining I'll post it in the forums :)

Thanks!

Re: Autopilot

ehehe, it's not my dream per se but since I'm a programmer I just want to build something fun and different from what I'm used to. My idea was to try to mount a camera on the crazyflie and do some image recognition but there's still no ideal solution to mount a camera as of yet (i've been following ...

Re: Autopilot

Hi,

I'm also interested in creating a program to control crazyflie "automatically".
What would be the best way to go about creating this program? Is it possible to use any other language (c or java) than python?

Thanks!
