pyfda
is a collection of command-line and GUI tools for Flydream
Altimeter flight data
extraction and visualization.
I wrote pyfda
because the altimeter came with a Windows-only software.
Currently tested on:
- Mac OS X 10.9.1 with Python 2.7
- Linux Ubuntu 13.10 with Python 2.7 and Python 3.3
Data extraction relies on pyserial
library and SILabs
USB to UART driver:
- http://pyserial.sourceforge.net/
- http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/pages/usbtouartbridgevcpdrivers.aspx
PySerial is embedded in Mac OS X bundle installer.
pyfda
is a work in progress.
In no particular order, I would like to:
- Write a user manual for CLI tool
- Test on Mac with Python 3, Test on Windows with both Python 2 and 3
- Add missing features in GUI
- Publish on PyPI?
