Graphical representation of digital compass and altimeter / Siti Zuraini Harun

This project describes graphical representation; the inputs received are defined from the digital compass and altimeter. The input readings from digital compass represent the coordinates of a flight in terms of heading, pitch and roll while altimeter gives the readings in height. This project mainly...
