What needs to change?

A new interface will need to be crafted for the new battery monitor board, which is being developed by our electrical team. You will need to work with them on what protocols/messages will be used between the board and the computer.

Like most electrical board implementations, packet interfaces should subclass from mil_usb_to_can.sub9.

Previous designs for this board had the software controller repeatedly ping the board for the most recent voltage output, however, the electrical team has voiced some concerns about this design. Therefore, if you want to work with the Electrical team, this is a great task to take on!

How would this task be tested?

1. Show a screenshot/video/in-person demo of the battery monitor board interfaces working with the board exchanging packets.
