Software Team Minutes 13 Oct 2004

Present included Peter, Bart, Keith, Jamey. James showed up too. Andrew and Tim were away working on Hardware.

The summary is from Andrew:

• We built a software simulator which simulates a launch using simulated acceleration and pressure data (which we took from the LV1b launch!).
• The framework for the software is done.
• The boost and apogee detect algorithms that we have didn't react like we expected to the simulated data and we don't know why yet.
• The state machine software that sequences the launch is just too untested, and the testing we did do had weird problems interacting with the hardware which we haven't managed to pin down yet.
