I got an idea for a new microcontroller based on this tutorial. With the GPS position of other targets now availalbe, you could make a TCAS Microcontroller (Traffic Collision Avoidance System). By calculating the closest point of approach (CPA), determining if it is within a protected airspace around your vehicle and time to CPA calculations, you would have a working TCAS. You could go further by actually using the different colors to display targets on the screen, depending on if they are other traffic, proximate traffic, possible threats or real threats. And calculating the relative altitude difference shouldnt be a problem, since you have your own altitude and the targets altitude. I guess it would be pretty cool to slap onto a 2x2 screen, since its basically a radar showing you all aircraft with their relative altitude + - your altitude + the feature to give you traffic warnings (or even resolution advisories, if you have like a lot of time to figure that out?)

From what i have tested, this radar setup works for airplanes. Only thing to do is to stabilize the roll by using a pivot and tilt sensor. By doing that the avarage deviation between the calculated radar value and the actual coordnates is between 5 - 25 meters. Tracking other planes and guiding something like a aim120 is in deed possible. Thanks for the showcase/tutorial

This will not work for any elevation angle other then 0 due to the bad spherical to cartesian conversion, do this instead x = cos(azi)*cos(elev)*dist y = sin(azi)*cos(elev)*dist z = sin(elev)*dist

Really good tutorial! since you asked for feedback. Maybe try to explain more frequently why you are doing certain ways so people understand what to do instead of just following a step by step instruction. Dont get me wrong, you did something exactly like this a couple of times. I just like to see more of that :) I find dumming down something a bit really helps while doing tutorials. But thats me nitpicking honestly, like i said, you even did it a couple of times. And maybe for time sake you didnt do it more frequently, dunno. Tho if it were that last case id concider doing a 2 parter (potentially twice the watchtime and more time to really get in there :) ) Really enjoyed it, its clear a lot of prep went into this, I hope you'll do more of this!

Great video! The maths explanations were on point, I got all that but I’m a bit new to stormworks so I’m wondering how you would implement this as autopilot. For example how would you input the destination you want to get to, would it be from a radio or another gps somewhere else or what? Thanks again for the tutorial 🙏
@se-ssi Жыл бұрын
You can check my workshop out and you should find a microcontroller called autopilot. But it's really the same as a GPS turret. And the way you put in the destination can simply be entering target coordinates on a keyboard.

Wouldn't you have to use the horizontal distance to the target to get the relative y and x? With youre code the target could be flying high and therefore give out Incorrect coordinates couse you are using the direct distance. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Is there a fix for the roll of a GPS turret ( the turret that is pointing at a GPS cord) I need one becasue i am trying to mount a turret on a ship. keep in mind that a stabilizer for the turret is not an option (too big)
@se-ssi11 ай бұрын
Yes there is. You can look at my GPS turret lua code for the full rotation compensation of every axies here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2999916357 But if you only want the roll compensation this should work: selfRoll = (input.getNumber(16)*math.pi*2) --Physics sensor channel 16 should be the roll. output.setNumber(1, (-yaw * math.cos(selfRoll)) - pitch * math.sin(selfRoll)) --Yaw control output.setNumber(2, pitch * math.cos(selfRoll) - yaw * math.sin(selfRoll)) --Pitch control You might have to play with putting a - around each output if reversed.

Sine works just as well and makes more sense. So you can just use sin() instead. Sorry for the confusing code. I decided to use tan for some reason but sin results in the exact same numbers.
