To ensure a smooth delivery, I thoroughly prepared my part, focusing on clearly conveying the main concepts and design rationale. I spent significant time rehearsing the presentation and refining the slides to make sure they were visually engaging and easy to follow. I also gathered feedback from my teammates during practice sessions to further improve the clarity and flow of the content.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, I was responsible for selecting the components for the charging pad module in our purchasing list. I researched extensively to determine the best options for our charging system, comparing various models and their specifications to ensure compatibility with our requirements. I also coordinated with my teammates to finalize other essential components, such as mechanical parts, ensuring our choices align well with the overall design and meet the project&#8217;s technical needs. This involved multiple discussions and iterations to balance cost, availability, and performance.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-191\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"323\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/1.jpg 684w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/1-300x280.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 323px) 100vw, 323px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lastly, I made improvements to the existing features of our app. I implemented a communication protocol that now allows the app to connect with other devices via WiFi, enabling real-time data exchange and expanding its functionality. Additionally, I started investigating the iPhone API to access information about temperature and charging status, which will further enhance the app&#8217;s capabilities. I looked through the API&#8217;s documentation and experimenting with different methods to retrieve the relevant data effectively. These improvements aim to make the app more user-friendly and provide more comprehensive information to users, preparing for our final design.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-192\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/2.jpg 693w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/2-242x300.jpg 242w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 231px) 100vw, 231px\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-193\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/3-222x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"212\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/3-222x300.jpg 222w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/f24-teama1\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/312\/2024\/10\/3.jpg 606w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 212px) 100vw, 212px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I am currently on schedule, and for the next steps:<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Finalize the purchase of the selected components and begin testing their integration into the system.<\/li>\n<li>Continue refining the app by completing the implementation of the iPhone API to gather temperature and charging status data, ensuring seamless integration.<\/li>\n<li>Work on the prototype of the charging pad module to verify its functionality and compatibility with the rest of the system.<\/li>\n<li>Collaborate with my teammates to set up a testing environment for the system, allowing us to identify any issues early and iterate on improvements.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, I took on the role of presenting the design introduction for our project.
