**New Features** * Added location services with GPS and network-based positioning, approximate or precise accuracy, and live status updates. * Added a Location Settings app to view status, control location access and accuracy, and manage GPS devices. * Added location choices during device setup and a location toggle in the system menu. * Added support for thread stacks in external memory when available, with fallback to existing memory options. **Improvements** * Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled states are saved when changed and applied at startup; separate “Enable on boot” switches are no longer shown in their management screens. * GPS setup can stop promptly when interrupted. * Improved device removal handling during startup and while references are outstanding. * Updated several device listings to no longer be marked as incubating.
TactilityKernel
TactilityKernel is the core component of the Tactility project, providing a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) and essential kernel services for embedded systems.
Features
- Device and Driver Model: A flexible system for managing hardware devices and their corresponding drivers.
- Peripheral Support: Standard interfaces for common peripherals:
- GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output)
- I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit)
- I2S (Inter-IC Sound)
- SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface)
- UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter)
- Concurrency Primitives: Built-in support for multi-threaded environments, including:
- Threads and Dispatchers
- Mutexes and Recursive Mutexes
- Event Groups
- Timers
- Module System: Support for loadable modules that can export symbols and provide runtime-extensible functionality.
- Device Tree Integration: Utilizes a devicetree-like system for hardware configuration and initialization.
- Cross-Platform: Designed to run on both embedded platforms (such as ESP32) and desktop environments (Linux) for simulation and testing.
