Sensor Calibration Logger

Overview

Turn raw sensor samples into usable thresholds, noise margins, and logging plans that survive real lighting and field conditions.

Workflow

1. Identify the sensor and event context.
   • color sensor reflection or color detection.
   • distance trigger.
   • force trigger.
   • heading or orientation using hub sensors.
2. Ask for samples, not guesses.
   • at least 5 black and 5 white reflection samples for line work.
   • multiple measurements at match-like distance and lighting.
3. If the user provides labeled reflection csv, run scripts/reflection_stats.py.
4. Recommend the smallest robust trigger rule.
   • threshold.
   • hysteresis or deadband if needed.
   • recheck or confirmation sample if noise is high.
5. Return the result in this order.
   • observed ranges.
   • recommended thresholds.
   • logging plan for next test.
   • what to recalibrate on event day.
