smart-buoy's Issues

Wave height measuring approach validity.

after reading more in the subject,
wave surface is actually the surface of equal pressure. So basically barometer is useless for measuring wave height. It will pick up only noise from the sensor. It’s then even useless for fusion with IMU data.
