[Suggestion] Accelerometer integration about adis16448-roborio-driver

That would be a great addition! Once you have some tested code implemented, feel free to submit a pull request and I'll integrate it into the code.

juchong, I have some code for acelerometer integration that works reasonably well. It makes use of a median filter. Would you be open to adding it if I made a pull? It is not as accurate as a Kalman Filter but since there is currently no feature for this I figure its better than nothing. Let me know, if so I'll polish it off and pull.

Also, do you currently have a complimentary filter for combining Gyro+Accel readouts for accurate angle over a long period?

Hi!
I don't have a problem with integrating the accelerometer code. Is this for LabVIEW? If so, either of us can do the final integration.

I don't have a complementary filter because the AHRS output should provide the user with a similar output. It wouldn't hurt to add, though.

Should've specified MB, this would be for Java and I could probably port it to C++ also. I don't know LabVIEW.

Oh, that makes it easy then! 👍

Go ahead and submit a pull request. I plan on updating the Java and C++ drivers to implement a few fixes I've already integrated into LabVIEW.

Hi! I just upgraded the driver to support auto SPI, so now may be a good time to add any code you may be working on!

Thanks!
