Hi, I recently posted this same inquiry to Edge Impulse(linked here), but wanted to post here as well to get more ideas.
I was wondering if anyone has experience using the Syntiant TinyML with external sensor data. I’m currently looking at the firmware libraries for the board here and I found a function in syntiant_ndp10x_micro.c
(which is linked here)called syntiant_ndp10x_micro_send_data
. I noticed that this function wasn’t implemented in the NDP.cpp
wrapper file and I am trying to use it to send external sensor data to the NDP101.
For right now, I am simply trying to write fake data (an array of integers) to the NDP101 and then read it again using the extractData
function from NDP.cpp
. I’m not getting my expected results and my suspicion is that extractData
is not reading from the same memory address that I write the data to. Alternatively, the data might be overwritten by the time I try to read it, but I’m not sure how to check that. Here is how I am currently trying to use the send_data function in NDP.cpp
:
int NDPClass::sendData(uint8_t *data, unsigned int len)
{
return syntiant_ndp10x_micro_send_data
(&ndp, data, len, SYNTIANT_NDP10X_MICRO_SEND_DATA_TYPE_FEATURE_STATIC, 0x00);
}
As of right now, I’ve made no other modifications to any of the other files.
I was considering using SYNTIANT_NDP10X_MICRO_SEND_DATA_TYPE_STREAMING
for the type variable instead, but I wasn’t certain on how to access the SPI interface of the NDP and properly read and write from it.
Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thank you!
