# IdeasX Module Firmware Repository (v0.3.X)
This repository holds the firmware for first IdeasX Encoder labeled the module. The module is a portable battery powered ESP8266 based device which contains the following hardware:
* 700mAh re-chargeable battery
* 80MHz 32-bit processor + Wi-Fi radio
* Integrated battery charger
* Battery gas gauge
* 6-axis IMU (accelerometer and gyroscope) with integrated 8kB FIFO
* Barometer
* USB to UART converter for programming / debugging
* RGB status LED
* 2 3.5mm mono audio jack for use with industry standard switches / buttons

## Hardware Design
The schematics and PCB were designed in KiCad. I'm currently working on cleaning up the files / integrating them into a Git repo so they can be uploaded on GitHub. (Bothering me will likely accelerate this.)

## Firmware Specifics
The firmware is based on tuanpm's MQTT repository (thanks man!). It's been heavily modified to suit the requirements of IdeasX. The esp-open-sdk is used to build the firmware. The latest version of the SDK is always used.

## Implementation Roadmap
1. Develop flash interface to store / restore settings from flash (doesn't need to support OTA)
2. Develop IdeasX interface

## Werid Issues
1. Make sure LSM6DS3 is properly setting the interrupt pin such that it will permit the SWA to still trigger an interrupt.
