Procedural Integration: how do we get sensor data? #37

Open KevinMackenzie opened 8 years ago

KevinMackenzie commented 8 years ago

What is the best way to pass sensor data to the procedural integration process? Also, since the accelerometer could receive very spiky results (high-impact), the update time needs to be very fast.

Can you pass data through the robo rio?

the procedural integration process is run on the roborio, but is running asynchronously and needs the data every update period. There might need to be a thread-safe access method for the information we need built into the drive train class for its encoder values (locking). This will complicate other code trying to access the sensor data, but not by much.
