Personal Accomplishment
What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files or photos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort into the project over the course of the week (12+ hours).
I worked on the design review presentation slide by aligning and comparing use-case requirements with technical specifications. I visualized each component in an implementation diagram to better demonstrate the system’s design. Additionally, I reviewed signal tuning strategies, exploring methods to improve radar signal processing accuracy and discussing accuracy metrics and their underlying rationale with the professor. I also studied and evaluated new radar datasheets to assess their relevant features and potential benefits for our project. Lastly, with discussions between our team, we replaced the previous chosen radar to a new one which was more useful and matches to our product.
Schedule
Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?
I have completed all the preparatory work ahead of the materials’ arrival. Through the design review and further discussions, the project goals and potential technical challenges have become clearer, which will help reduce future burdens. Although I haven’t been able to start setting up the audio hat due to material reorder delays, I have previewed the necessary information and am ready to begin as soon as it arrives.
Upcoming Deliverables
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
- Set up the audio hat as soon as it arrives.
- Assist teammates with setting up the radar and accelerometer, and support data collection during the initial stage. My primary work will begin in the next phase, once the initial setup is complete.
