This week we worked with course staff to finalise our project. We met with Prof. Yu and Funmbi on Monday and Wednesday to help narrow down the scope of our project. Earlier we had planned to develop the game playing AI ourselves, but it was decided that is too complex. So, we decided to use existing AI for the game.
We also got feedback on how to make sure that the project still remains unique and useful. This required us to make sure that the user actually gains something by using our board, and it’s not the same as using a regular Chess App.
We met three times during the week to iterate upon our ideas. We also worked on dividing up the project into chunks that could be handled independently. Then, we assigned tasks based off of our strengths. We also worked together on our proposal presentation slides.
