We are pleased to report significant progress on our new Blackfin/FPGA based sonar module. The supporting software is ready, the analog filters work, the Blackfin boots Linux, and the FPGA can read the ADCs. We are looking forward to the rest of the testing and integration. We are all hard at work on all of our systems at biweekly meetings and looking forward to the competition very much!
