Change Balance Board Implementation to use relative Values #17

Open jloehr opened 8 years ago

Current Implementation is using the calibrated sensor data. However the sensor data are absolute weight values. Therefore a minimum body weight is needed to achieve the max or min value for an axis.

The implementation should be changed to take the body weight into account and transform the sensor data into relative values.

One Idea would be to interpolate the sensor data to the body weight (accumulated value of all four sensors). Additionally it might be good to use 0.5 as max value, so the person does not have to move its full body weight to achieve the max value.
