Jun 20 16:53:20 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: ping
Jun 20 16:53:39 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: i'll be around for a few hours, ask whatever it's unclear for you
Jun 20 17:06:35 <azizulhakim> vvu: let me know if you face any trouble to test the driver in bone. you can also try it in pc
Jun 20 17:16:44 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: pong
Jun 20 17:17:04 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: yeap
Jun 20 17:17:22 <vmayoral|pc> i wrote you an e-mail, go through it and let me know if there's something unclear for you still
Jun 20 17:17:46 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: Going through it now...
Jun 20 17:21:16 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: Okay, I won't touch the PRUs...
Jun 20 17:22:13 <rohith> For the vehicle code, what changes have to be made apart from adding the relevant cpp files to the vehicle folder?
Jun 20 17:31:09 <rohith_> vmayoral|pc: ping
Jun 20 18:04:32 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: ping
Jun 20 18:04:39 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: pong
Jun 20 18:05:08 <rohith> For the vehicle code, what changes have to be made apart from adding the relevant cpp files to the vehicle folder?
Jun 20 18:06:04 <vmayoral|pc> that should basically be it
Jun 20 18:06:13 <rohith> Okay
Jun 20 18:06:15 <vmayoral|pc> you probably also need to abstract the dynamical model of the submarine within the new vehicle
Jun 20 18:06:33 <vmayoral|pc> which means, understand the OpenROV vehicle and port it appropriately
Jun 20 18:06:40 <rohith> Okay
Jun 20 18:07:52 <rohith> Understood the OpenROV code to an extent. The BBB runs nodejs and the Arduino based board connected to it is responsible for interfacing with the sensors.
Jun 20 18:09:24 <rohith> The BBB is connected to the webcam and uses socket.io and mjpeg streamer to relay the feed to a web browser on the host machine.
Jun 20 18:11:31 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: Since the submarine will not be using RC, uncommenting the lines where RC is declared in the code should do the job?
Jun 20 18:12:57 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: my advice will be to forget about the camera aspects and focus on porting the vehicle code
Jun 20 18:13:16 <vmayoral|pc> do not care for now about the nodejs code
Jun 20 18:13:32 <vmayoral|pc> just focus on porting the code logic to the current existing APM logic
Jun 20 18:14:15 <rohith> No, I am not working on the camera part. Just the OpenROV steering, depth etc.
Jun 20 18:15:08 <rohith> I am also leaving out nodejs part.
Jun 20 18:16:07 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: To remove RC support, uncommenting the relevant lines should be sufficient?
Jun 20 18:16:35 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: i don't understand your question. RC (PWM output) will be necessary to control the submarine. Maybe provide a code pointer?
Jun 20 18:18:07 <rohith> I meant that since a tether will be used to connect to the submarine and not a 433mhz or so radio, shouldn't it be commented out so that the APM does not keep looking for it?
Jun 20 18:22:57 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: ping
Jun 20 18:24:22 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: I still do not understand what you mean. Provide a code pointer of what you'd like to comment
Jun 20 18:24:33 <rohith> Okay
Jun 20 18:25:01 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: if your concern is on how to communicate with the vehicle through APM, there're several ways, all unrelated to RC input (which i believe is what you are referring to)
Jun 20 18:27:11 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: When I connected the Erle Brain to APM Planner, I got a "RC Missing" message.
Jun 20 18:27:56 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: did you run remoteproc driver on 4.1 ?
Jun 20 18:33:09 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: I'll search for a code pointer and get back to you later.
Jun 20 18:33:48 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: that's totally unrelated to BeaglePilot2
Jun 20 18:33:59 <rohith> Okay
Jun 20 18:33:59 <vmayoral|pc> you are getting that because there's no RC receiver connected
Jun 20 18:34:04 <vmayoral|pc> to Erle-Brain
Jun 20 18:34:09 <rohith> Yes
Jun 20 18:34:15 <vmayoral|pc> but that doesn't avoid you from working with it
Jun 20 18:34:35 <vmayoral|pc> having said that, please focus your time into submarine code port
Jun 20 18:34:40 <vmayoral|pc> midterm is in a few days
Jun 20 18:34:47 <vmayoral|pc> and as i shared, there's a lot to catch up
Jun 20 18:35:25 <vmayoral|pc> reuse the existing sensor in Erle-Brain and the PixHawk Fire Cape (PXF) so that you don't need to code more drivers (e.g. pressure sensor)
Jun 20 18:35:41 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: Okay. Will focus on the submarine logic.
Jun 20 18:35:48 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: great
Jun 20 18:36:17 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: Will try to use existing sensor libraries wherever possible
Jun 20 18:36:34 <rohith> Thanks for the help :)
Jun 20 18:36:49 <vmayoral|pc> rohith: ping me either here or through e-mail if you get stucked
Jun 20 18:37:05 <vmayoral|pc> generally it's best if you provide a code pointer within your working branch
Jun 20 18:37:28 <rohith> vmayoral|pc: Will do

Jun 20 23:32:44 <vvu_> azizulhakim: i just arrived from seaside
Jun 20 23:32:51 <vvu_> will let you know how it behaves.
