This week our team focused on making the design presentation, and nailing down the higher level details in our design.
On top of the original design with sensors, raspberry pi and data processing on our laptop to create the conversion, we are adding a separate signal processing component into our design with the addition of a team member. The signal processing component will work parallel to the sensor approach to collect data, and is expected to generate the same work eventually on the sheet music to cross validate the results we obtained from the sensor and data processing.
We made some decisions on the details on what we are going to do with the raspberry pi to connect the sensor data output, convert them to computer readable format. With reading the datasheet and manufacturing notes on the raspberry pi we obtained we filled in some of the details on what I2C protocol we are going to be using in our design. We also started the schematic and chose components for our data collection PCB that we will order next week.
At the same time, we also started digging through the existing API connection for the open source repository we are going to use to generate the sheet music, MuseScore.
