  Week 5: Waterfall support, refactoring and fixing bugs

  Week 4 ended with the minimal waterfall sink. This week it landed on main and caught up to the line sink having complex and float inputs, a Display Domain dropdown, the same cyber_context lifecycle. Then I removed a GRC option that turned out to do nothing, fixed a binding-order bug.

  Week 4: lineplot finishing touches, bugs and minimal waterfall

  Last week ended with a working multi-sink line plot, but with one inconvenient problem: the macOS main-thread constraint still forced every flowgraph to include a GRC Snippet block calling cyberether.present(). That block worked, it’s inconvenient for users to have to remember the block on every. I also added input-type variants (complex / float) and exposed Superluminal’s renderer-device choice to GRC. and Finished with a minimal waterfall sink implementation that is yet to be pushed.

  Week 2 & 3: buffers, threading, and more

  Week 2 was reduced work due to my finals, no new deliverable just research and tying off the minimal line-plot sink from last week. Week 3 was applying that research. So this post covers both, and the more interesting story is the part of the plan that didn’t survive contact with the code.

  Week 1: gr-cyberether takes shape

  This is the first weekly update on my Google Summer of Code project with GNU Radio: gr-cyberether, an out-of-tree (OOT) module that brings CyberEther’s GPU-accelerated visualization (Superluminal) into GNU Radio flowgraphs as native sinks.
