=  AKM8976A =

The goal here is to add support for AKM8976A to akmd-free (a free rewrite of akmd, the daemon that deals with the accelerometer/magnetometer data for a few chips, including AKM ones). 

This page is to coordinate the work around this goal.

|| Get an idea of how it works (what akmd does after what) || [[span(Done , style=background: green; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||

|| Define the exact steps that akmd follows || [[span(Done , style=background: green; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||

|| Implement AKM8976A in akmd-free without any data treatment yet || [[span(Done , style=background: green; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||

|| Understand how the data is treated (algorithms, etc) || [[span(Work in progress , style=background: orange; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||

|| Reproduce the data treatment with standard C code || [[span(Work in progress , style=background: orange; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||

|| Include the data treatment code in akmd-free || [[span(TODO , style=background: red; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||

|| Check that everything is OK on different devices || [[span(TODO , style=background: red; color: white; display: inline-block; width: 100%;)]] ||
