Roadmap

Nothing specific and no deadlines but this shows the updates I (Derrick) already have in mind and a loose idea of the prioritization:

• Serial Comms
  • UART, SPI, I2C
  • Already started (UART is functional, needs a few more features added)
• Documentation
  • Initial focus on organization of the code base, how the build system works, and some small implementation details
  • Will live in the cti-firmware repo as a collection of markdown files
  • Platforms and Board variations will also be lightly documented in this initial pass to give some understanding how supporting multiple boards is expected to work in the source code.
• Pico W Support
  • Enable the SCPI over a Wi-Fi connection for untethered remote operation.
• Device support tooling
  • Mainly pulling what I started with picoG, supports tracking and configuring (wifi access settings) firmware for devices.
  • Additional walk-through functionality for initial setup of a device
  • Integrated terminal emulator for working with SCPI mode firmware
  • Integrated test panels for exercising basic functionality
  • Think MAX, but for CTI
• Pico 2 Support
• Resurrect picoG project (Run headlessly from apps built in G Web)
• DAQ API mode firmware
  • Different firmware deployment
  • Usable by DAQmx style LabVIEW APIs
  • Better for streaming AI data
  • Faster data rates (No SCPI parsing/generation)
  • Support for Pico, Pico W, Pico 2
