Report 10 (August 19 - August 25)

This is Report #10. I plan to post these every Sunday. They will give a rundown of what I've done during the week, list any problems I had, and what I plan to do the following week. I'll be posting the reports both to the beagle-gsoc Google Group and to my blog.

Completed this week:

• Rebased against mainline Minix
• Tested the TSL2550 (ambient light sensor) driver.
• Finished the SHT21 (relative humidity and temperature sensor) driver.
• Developed a BMP085 (pressure and temperature sensor) driver.
• Code merged into mainline Minix this week:
• tsl2550: driver for the TSL2550 light sensor
• sht21: driver for the SHT21 humidity & temp sensor
• bmp085: driver for the BMP085 temp&pressure sensor
• eepromread: add board info for BeagleBone Capes
• rc: start drivers for attached BeagleBone Capes 
• Modified the bonescript weatherstation demo to use JSON instead of node.js / socket.io and display pressure in hPa. Here's a screenshot using a static JSON file.

 Issues / Concerns / Challenges:

• None this week :)

Plan for next week:

• Develop a script to read from the sensors and output JSON.
• Integrate the weather station demo and make it trivial to setup and use.
• Write more documentation.
• How to use the Minix I2C /dev interface.
• How to develop support for additional capes.
• How to use the BeagleBone Weather Cape in Minix.
