Makani was an ambitious Google X project that sought to harness wind energy using airborne wind turbines — autonomous kites capable of generating power while flying in crosswind patterns. This open-source repository contains the complete software stack that powered Makani’s research and flight systems, including the flight simulator, autopilot controller, avionics firmware, visualization tools, and ground control software. The software enables simulation, control, and analysis of the Makani...

...A lot of people wind up writing their own half-baked style of evaluation language that fits their needs but isn't complete. Or they wind up baking the expression into the actual executable, even if they know it's subject to change. These strategies may work, but they take time to implement, time for users to learn, and induce technical debt as requirements change.

Big Sack is a Java persistence mechanism that allows storage of key value pairs following the popular Big Data paradigms. Its a very simple and straightforward way to bridge the gap between in-memory data structures and long-term storage. It has the convenience of Java SDK TreeMap and TreeSet classes and is used the same easy way, but it includes rollback through undo logging to checkpoint data so it does not wind up in an unknown state regardless of failures. ...
