IceNav

Hi,

Support for T-DECK from lilygo is going at a good pace. (taking into account the limitations on my part of not having this board)

Thanks to hpsaturn We are stabilizing the migration and adding new features, such as battery saving, etc., etc.

Following the "roadmap" and if everything goes well, I will soon publish a new firmware release with many new features and perhaps a review of the IceNav custom board

Stay tunned!

I’m currently working on providing support for the LilyGo T-DECK.

Thanks to the immense help of @hpsaturn, a collaborator in my development, we are trying to adapt IceNav to a LilyGo T-DECK.

Since I don’t physically have the device, the development will take some time.

Anyway, I will keep updating on the progress both here and on my GitHub.

Stay tuned!

Although the purpose of this project was to create my own hardware, I see that there are currently solutions on the market that are perfectly valid for my development to work.

That’s why, regardless of my desire to design specific hardware, I want to change the focus of the project and provide support for existing hardware. This way, I believe it would be easier for anyone who wants to make use of it.

Lately, I've realized that this option might help the project reach more people, and who knows, it could end up being used.

That’s why my intention is to try, as much as possible, to ensure that my project can be used with the maximum number of existing hardware solutions that I believe are valid.

To achieve all this, it will involve trying to emulate all the possible existing solutions since I don’t have access to all of them.

Stay tuned!

Due to Hackaday problems.... my last project log doesn't have a screenshot for the new feature...

It's this..

As navigation to a waypoint is almost implemented I am working on adding some functionality to the map screen (rendering)

It is still in the testing phase but it is almost implemented that when a waypoint is loaded to navigate to it, if said waypoint is within the visible and loaded map, a pin appears indicating where it is located.

Possible next features:

• Map Scroll
• Save waypoint when user press a location in map.

Well, finally after some tests, etc... web file server is finished!

Taking advantage of some code I had from other projects for a web file server that allows uploading, downloading, etc., of files from an SD card, I’ve made a few modifications to the web page template (adding a logo, etc.) and I'm implementing it into the project.

I still need to review and optimize the code a bit (it's not 100% reliable yet), but I hope to have it ready soon.

Stay tuned!

In the development branch, a simple navigation functionality to a waypoint stored on the SD card is implemented.

You can see screenshots etc on Github

Finally, Elecrow ESP32 Terminal is full supported by IceNav.

For the moment it's implemented at devel branch.
