Update of /cvsroot/firebug/firebug/doc/sensor_interface In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv22961 Modified Files: sensor_interface.tex Log Message: Added some notes on sensors. Index: sensor_interface.tex =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/firebug/firebug/doc/sensor_interface/sensor_interface.tex,v retrieving revision 1.2 retrieving revision 1.3 diff -C2 -d -r1.2 -r1.3 *** sensor_interface.tex 29 Jun 2004 00:26:27 -0000 1.2 --- sensor_interface.tex 24 Sep 2004 00:16:36 -0000 1.3 *************** *** 707,710 **** --- 707,735 ---- \end{itemize} + \subsection{Recommendations} + + \begin{itemize} + + \item Better error reporting. If a sensor quits, + it would be helpful to shut it down in the software, + such that the software could operate as if the + sensor were ``unplugged'' from the sensorboard. + The HLSensor interface could be really helpful here, + especially if there was some hardware support for it. + + + \item Small amount of flash on the sensor board, + enough to store UUID and serial number. It would + be nice (actually, it will be essential in the + future) to be able to query the board to find out + it's capabilities, and all this could be burnt + into flash (or whatever). + + \item External serial number on board. It's really + hard to keep track of working versus non-working + boards. + + + \end{itemize} |
