Aaron’s Status Update for 10/10/2020

This week I spent my time working with Django trying to get a web app up and running for our ASL interpreter. My goal was to get a web app up and running with the OpenCV api and make it accessible by our kindle fire tablets. I was able to get the server up and running but ran into an issue where you can’t run a publicly accessible server easily from WSL without doing some complicated network bridging. I tried to install Ubuntu on my computer as a workaround but that didn’t work. However I did find a method using the Termux on android that allows us to run the Django webapp straight off the tablet itself. Overall I think I made some headway but the setback didn’t allow me to make as much progress on the app as I wished. SO I’d say were a little behind on the Open CV integration but still relatively in line with our entire project schedule. By next week I hope to have a working Open CV integration in the app with a video feed preview.
