Rahul Arasikere- Summer GSoC20 - Porting FreeRTOS to Portena #126

Closed rahul-arasikere closed 3 years ago

rahul-arasikere commented 4 years ago

Hello, I am a Sophomore studying computer science at Boston University. I have worked with embedded projects as a hobby and as well as for my university's rocketry club. I don't have too much experience writing low-level code, I have written drivers for sensor boards and gone through technical documentation for various sensors for my projects, I was still interested in applying to port FreeRTOS to Portena. I have also written memory allocator in C and simple dataloggers, (I'm working on a more complex flight board for a rocket right now we plan on using FreeRTOS so this would be a great way for me to get familiar with it further.).

As for submitting a pull request to one of your libraries, could you provide suggestions? I thought I remember one of your examples for the BNO055 sensor was wrong but I realized it was the Adafruit's implementation of the driver.
