This week i worked on finishing up code for how to direct users/verbal commands for users, and also outputting that feedback using a text-to-speech API (pyttsx3). I also wrote code to orient users at the start of the trip. This is to help users know which direction they need to rotate to begin the trip (left, slight left, right, slight right, turn around, no action). Tomorrow, I will meet with Colin to do integration and testing for our mini-demo on Monday.
Next week I want to start implementing two of the more advanced concepts, which are redirecting, and heuristics for whether to avoid an unfriendly crosswalk (distance based). I will also start doing testing by writing a suite of units tests for my code.
