This week I worked on building the server to connect with multiple clients and setup a protocol between the hub server and the different clients (button, wearable, camera). To remember what devices are correspond to what, I created a file that will store mac addresses …
We worked on making our design presentation. Our hub can now communicate with another device if it’s connected through the Wireless Access Point through an echo server that uses a TCP connection. The SPI protocol is being worked on to communicate between the Wi-Fi board …
For this week I set up a echo server on the raspberry pi 4 hub. This server is using a predefined host address and port and clients need to be already connected to the raspberry pi’s wireless access point to communicate with the server. After setting up the echo server, I tested the communication by writing a simple client on my laptop, then connected my laptop to the raspberry pi and ran the client. I was able to successfully get the communication working which will be the basis for the communication between the hub and all of the embedded devices.
We worked on setting up our devices. OpenCV was being installed on the Raspberry Pi Zero. A wireless access point was set up for the Raspberry Pi 4 for our main hub. UART was being set up to help debug the wearable and button devices.
We have received all of our parts for our project. I started researching on how to create a Wireless Access Point using the Raspberry Pi. Each of the devices will be connecting to this WAP, so the hub can send it messages through it’s own …
We have just started receiving parts for our project and we have been working on the setup phase of our design as well as some more research on how we are going to implement our project.
