Team Status Update for 10/24

Peizhi & Echo

We are about 1 week ahead of our schedule.

This week:

• Obstacle detection & reaction
• Rotation when idle/lost track

Next week:

• Spot issue with Pi camera (likely burnt), purchase new one if necessary
• Purchase Raspberry Pi tool kit and mount the Pi + camera on the robotic base
• Integrate the obstacle detection script with our main Computer Vision script

Yuhan

My schedule is unchanged and posted in my individual status update.

There is no significant change to the web app system design either.

Refer to my individual update for screenshots of the web app.

The current priority/risk is to integrate Pi with web app. I will be focused on it next week onwards. To mitigate, My plan is to go over the following test cases:

1. send data for one alarm to Pi, and see:
   1. if the robot base can be activated within a reasonable latency/in real time;
   2. if the robot base can play the ringtone sequence correctly.
2. schedule one alarm, and see if the robot base can be activated at scheduled time;
3. schedule 3 alarms in one row;
4. schedule one alarm 3 times;
5. schedule one alarm with a specified interval, and see if the robot can be  repeatedly activated reliably.
