Re: [Paparazzi-devel] temperature measurement -experiment

[Felix Ruess]

Hi Prashanth,

there are already quite a few modules for temperature and other meteo
sensors, see http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Modules_list
You can also use ADC generic, to read one or two extra ADC ports and
automatically send a message down to the ground station:

Cheers, Felix
