Compatibility of a pressure sensor

Blue Robotics Software ArduSub

Hi @angelorisonk ,

Unfortunately it isn’t doable straight-away.

There are currently no analog baros support in ardupilot at all.
I can think of three alternatives:

  • Use this PR and write a lua script to provide pressure using a reading from the analog sensor,
  • Implement a new AP_Baro backend that takes lua script readings, similar to the link above
  • Implement a new AP_Baro backend for analog baros.

You will also need to keep this in mind, ArduSub requires a BARO_TYPE_WATER driver to be happy.
