write node that estimates boat speed from IMU data

Failure handling: wet electronics

1

We need sensors, detection and reaction to electronics being wet

Desing 3D printable bulb

1

A bulb that can be filled with lead shot and attaches at the top with a go-pro holder would be nice. It probably needs a metal rod inside the 3D...

Handle failure: too strong heeling

2

We need to detect and react to too strong heeling

This is probably worth a discussion in the meeting. Useful plots use data to efficiently give an overview, combining data densely in a small number of plots, without over-crowding the...

Waterproof SMA cables

1

They will be a bit more challenging to waterproof. https://www.gigatronix.co.uk/coaxial-connectors/browse/sma-waterproof

The auto generation needs to improve: - all subscriber topics and all publisher topics should be recognised automatically, rather than needing editing in the top - a page that lists...

Remove peak current draws from servo

5

currently we can't use the same batteries for servo motor because during peak current draws the battery voltage collapses too much and the raspberry pi reboots. There must be a...

Failure handling: avoid buoy

1

We may need additional assurance we don't run into a buoy (and other floating things) - maybe visual or distance sensing based?

use parameters expressing weather conditions

1

The following parameters were determined to be variable depending on weather conditions: - how far does the sheet go (/weather/SheetLength) - laylines safety margin (/weather/LaylineMargin) - waypoint position (this depends...
