Artificial Attitude - DataLogger

DataLogger




Package for Artificial Attitude


MicroPython Or CircuitPython...
There's available, and cumbersome, driver code available in CircuitPython
The CircuitPython data logging methodology reads to be prone to brik'n.

I now have a Raspberry Pi Pico with a corrupt CircuitPython file system.

We need a more tolerant run-or-off kinda set-up.

The new clone board
(on the same breadboard as the LIS331HH)
has a USB-C connector for possible increased compatibility/durability



My hobby is undoing therapy.




F*ed if I'm Going to Learn Python
This is CircuitPython, a less favourite dialect of the language that I said that I wasn't going to learn.


LIS133HH +/-24g accelerometer.
I've made a data logger.
It needs a chassis.




It writes CSV for direct import to Excel97


Data-Logging



Accounting




Design.




Side Quest




DataLogger has a new microcontoller; chassis in progress.

    Graph


    DataLogger recorded 2787 data points over 446.469 seconds.
    Launch detected at 320.356 seconds after start.
    Flight time: 7.774 seconds and 49 data points.

    Peak acceleration during launch at 320.98 seconds after start
    X-axis: 112.51 m/s^2
    Y-axis: -112.97 m/s^2
    Z-axis: 235.24* m/s^2
    *possibly a maxed out value.
    These are also directional anomalies, likely caused by hitting the bar.
    Vector magnitude: 284.18 m/s^2
    For 28.98g.

    Highest value that makes directional sense at 321.295 seconds from start:
    X-axis: -24.82m/s^2
    Y-axis: 11.38 m/s^2
    Z-axis: -168.82 m/s^2
    Vector magnitude: 171.01 m/s^2
    For: 17.43g. (rounded up)

    Hitting the ground without the parachute deployed at 328.13 seconds from start:
    X-axis: -159.74m/s^2
    Y-axis: 87.34 m/s^2
    Z-axis: -16.78 m/s^2
    Vector magnitude: 182.83 m/s^2
    For: 18.64g.
