Member Function Documentation

read()

bool Artemis::Devices::IMU::read

(

uint32_t

uptime

)

Reads the satellite's IMU.

This method of the IMU class reads the IMU's values, stores it in an imubeacon, and transmits that beacon to the ground.

Parameters

uptime

The time, in milliseconds, since the Teensy has been powered on.

Returns

true The IMU has been successfully read and a packet carrying the reading has been queued for transmission.

false The IMU could not be read.

setup()

bool Artemis::Devices::IMU::setup

(

void

)

Sets up the satellite's IMU.

This method of the IMU class sets up the I2C connection to the satellite's IMU and applies settings to it.

Returns

true The IMU has been successfully set up.

false The I2C connection to the IMU failed to start.
