DocScrutinizer05I'm probably sounding dull, but could somebody point me to the API specs and docs of sensorfw? I tried to find them in google and git but seems I'm temporarily blinded03:58
specialDocScrutinizer05: https://github.com/mer-packages/sensorfw is probably all there is04:00
DocScrutinizer05special: thanks04:06
DocScrutinizer05I looked there, it's pretty sparse04:06
specialwhat're you doing?04:07
specialgenerally you want to interact with QtSensors rather than sensorfw directly04:07
DocScrutinizer05trying to understand the design principles and API of sensorfw04:07
DocScrutinizer05I'm designing hw and I need to understand sw side's take on sensors to satisfy their needs or at least provide proper howto-use-the-hw04:08
lpotterheh.. its spaghetti04:08
DocScrutinizer05sonsors are a pretty broad and complex topic04:09
lpotterindeed04:09
DocScrutinizer05sensors even04:09
lpotternot sure of API docs, I think someone removed them long ago04:09
DocScrutinizer05alas sysfs API is pretty specific and not unified for differnet sensor types or even builds of same type04:10
lpotterthere are example adaptors/sensors, etc in the example dir04:10
DocScrutinizer05I hoped for sensorfw coming up with a proper general purpose API to interface to sensors04:11
lpottersysfs is one way to access the sensors04:11
lpotterthere is the qt API for sensorfw, and then QtSensors as well04:11
DocScrutinizer05sysfs is basically only usable for a middleware like sensorfw, otherwise you get resource allocation and management collisions04:11
DocScrutinizer05for all but the most basic simple sensors04:12
lpotterand for fast sensors like accel and gyro, evdev is the way to go04:12
lpotteror, of course libhybris04:12
DocScrutinizer05I'm not interested in libhybris04:12
DocScrutinizer05evdev is fine for some sorts of sensors04:13

*** merlin_1991 has joined #mer04:14
DocScrutinizer05for most embedded sensors you got complex configuration and IRQ triggering in the sensor itself, and evdev doesn't help much with that04:14

*** trbs has quit IRC04:14
*** alexxy has quit IRC04:14
*** merlin1991 has quit IRC04:14
DocScrutinizer05basically accel for example is maybe fast (or at least should be) but not necessarily high-bandwidth04:15
*** nciked_ has quit IRC04:15
DocScrutinizer05e.g a freefall event happens only once a year, but then you want to receive an IRQ to handle that event in milliseconds04:15
*** nciked has joined #mer04:15
DocScrutinizer05so, to handle concurrent resource requests to same sensor, you generally need a smar middleware with a general purpose API04:16
DocScrutinizer05you don't want to poll an accel a year with 400Hz to detect that one freefall event in software - particularly when the sensor has means to detect the event in hardware and system may idle until event occurs04:17
*** tbr has joined #mer04:26
*** trbs has joined #mer04:30
DocScrutinizer05you frequently need a middleware that coordinates and aggregates the resource requests from userland processes about sensor events the particular process is interested in. Then the middleware has to find the union set if configuration settings for the sensor that satisfy all those requests, set up the sensor accordingly, and in case handle IRQs from the sensor, analyze what cause triggered the IRQ and in turn send out the notifications to04:35
DocScrutinizer05the processes that requested for that particular event04:35

*** Frye has joined #mer04:39
*** drachensun has quit IRC04:53
DocScrutinizer05I have an API spec that seems universal, comprehensive and flexible enough to handle a broad rage of sensors, from accel to GPS04:57
DocScrutinizer05I however hoped for such API spec already existing, and that's why I asked for the API spec of sensorfw04:57

cybrNautguess i'm being unrealistic to expect to find a pixelQI device18:02
cybrNautbut I do want something bigger than a phone -- this would be for reading books.  so perhaps the kobo vgrade mentions is the best choice18:02
