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).
- This week, I worked on an initial “prototype” for the housing assembly.
- I 3D printed Version 6 of the CAD model and redesigned some components as needed, including adding tolerances for holes and properly assigning space for all components.
- With the iterations, this was the 3D printed model:
- This model is able to attach to the side of the glasses and is relatively comfortable to wear (according to three people). The model does not yet include an LCD holder.
Is your progress on schedule or behind. If you are behind, what actions will be
taken to catch up to the project schedule?
- I am relatively on-time, except for the CAD model for the LCD holder, which may be post-interim-demo.
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
- I will have the LCD holder (and pick an LCD to use – transparent or not).
- I will also work on making our final assembly completely “wireless.” Right now, due to some logistical difficulties with making the microphone wireless, the Pico is connected to the Pi via a cable, which I aim to remove.
- I also hope to have the CAD model perfected.
Now that you have some portions of your project built, and entering into the verification and validation phase of your project, provide a comprehensive update on what tests you have run or are planning to run. In particular, how will you analyze the anticipated measured results to verify your contribution to the project meets the engineering design requirements or the use case requirements?
Verification is usually related to your own subsystem and is likely to be discussed in your individual reports.
Validation is usually related to your overall project and is likely to be discussed in your team reports.- I will be first testing the weight of my design by measuring it on a scale.
- I will also check how comfortable it is by having various users evaluate comfort based on time. I will ask them to wear it and complete various tasks over the span of 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes.
- I will also ensure that the LCD meets our latency and accuracy requirements by evaluating its performance over 3 one-hour sessions.
