Time based low pass filter

[eco_bach]

Hi
I have a Boolean value changed from an external sensor.
It works however it sometimes switches from true to false too quickly.
I want to prevent this from happening by introducing some type of time based low pass filter.
ie after changing Boolean start timer
Only allow additional changing after some predefined interval has passed.

Can anyone help with the actual implementation?

You have like 4 other threads related to lowpass filters, and this boolean problems:

Using Linq and Queue to get average float value

First time using both Queue and Linq. Attempting to simply get the average value of a Queue containing float values. So I have using System; using System.Linq; using System.Collections.Generic; float average = myQueue.Sum<> / myQueue.Count; But am getting an error Invalid expression term "/". Why? Also since I am calculating average in an Update loop I need to consider better performing alternatives.

Using Array or Stack to create 'Low Pass' filter

Hi Trying to create a type of low pass filter where I am constantly average the previous 10 float values. Not sure whether to use Builtin arrays (native .NET arrays), the .NET Stack operator, or perhaps an ArrayList. In pseudocode I need to 1- Define the array or Stack containing 10 floats 2- Every update Push a new value to the Array or Stack 3- Check the length and if greater than10 remove the first or oldest float value from the Array or Stack 4- Get the average of all float values in t…

Switching Boolean just once in Update

Can anyone tell me if using an 'if ..else' statement is the accepted 'best way' of switching a Boolean just once in an Update loop? void Update(){ if (myBool ==true){ myBool = false; //do something here just once }else if (myBool ==false){ myBool = true; //do something else here just once } }

Low Pass filter - alternatives to using Lerp?

Hi Need a simple low pass filter to filter a single float input. A quick search seems to indicate that Lerp is used for most solutions ie https://answers.unity.com/questions/865817/how-to-implement-a-low-pass-filter-for-acceleromet.html Is there a 'better' approach that introduces less lag or latency?

Why are you creating multiple different threads? Keep this all together.

Especially since readers can see assistance you already read and get a better idea of what the problem is, and where the problem stands, so they can better assist you.

…

We’ve had this discussion in the past as well. Is there a reason you habitually do this? It makes assisting you very difficult since some people will re-suggest already suggested things. And people will ask for information you’d previously given in a completely different thread.

How is this beneficial to either of you?

And if it’s because you can’t find your original thread. Maybe try turning your profile back on, it contains a link to all threads you’ve created, so you can easily find your history of posts for quick reference. It also means others can too… so they can see and reference information that was previously already discussed in regards to your question since you love to break them up into multiple posts.

It seems like you’re actively taking measures to obfuscate the fact you habitually create threads about the same thing.

…

I say this all especially since you say:

Can anyone help with the actual implementation?

Implementation requires information… information you obfuscate from us.

It makes our giving you assistance more difficult!

And since we do this for FREE… what motivation do we have to offer assistance if you constantly make it difficult to do so?
