- We added a filter for the mb1010 sonars.
- - We started with a moving average, which appeared to help, but we still experienced drops in the value
- - We logged the filtered and raw values, and plotted them in excel.
- - The drops we were experiencing were very periodic. This was most likely not random noise
- - The filter did mitigate the drops, but since they were so severe, it did not remove them completely.
- - If we made the filter more aggressive, then the drops would be completely filtered out, but then our sonar would be much less sensitive to changes in the environment.
- - At a later date, we will test a different sonar. Hopefully it will not experience the same periodic drops.
