Closed sgh055 closed 8 years ago

sgh055 commented 8 years ago

Hello

I have a question.

Pixhawk support some sonar sensor. But I want to use MLX90614(temperature sensors) using I2C.

Is this possible connection?

If you know way to connect please tell me some link or data. thank you.

what do you want to do by MLX90614?Althold?obstacle avoidance?

Long ago ardupilot was using thermopiles but that support has been dropped as currently we are using gyros/accels to determine orientation. @sgh055 I would suggest you to write your own library support for this thermopile sensor.

@Jasonsiu I would just measure the air temperature for embers detection

@jpkh Then I'd get where did the information on i2c library of ardupilot?

@sgh055 naturally from here on Ardupilot repository
