What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files orphotos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort in to the project over the course of the week (12+ hours).

This week, I presented the Design Presentation on Monday. Also on Monday, we met with Sofia from BU who made a similar project to us for advice. Then, we met Professor Michael Taylor in the CS department who has expertise in low cost air quality sensors to receive feedback on our design and get information on how to calibrate and validate sensors. We also received more contacts in CMU who may be able to help us get access to expensive air quality monitoring equipment for testing. Finally, because we had to make an abrupt change to the way we interface with the LoRaWAN gateway module, I designed a very simple PCB that simply takes the pinouts of the mini PCIe interface and breaks them out into a header. I sent the order in for Quinn on Thursday.

Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?

My progress is slightly behind due to PCB work. I am specifically behind creating code for LoRaWAN communication. Since we cannot test the transmission in real time because we do not have the PCB yet, I will push the testing tasks back by a week and write code next week.

What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?

1. LoRaWAN starter code

2. Completely revamp our copilot generated website to actually look like we need it to.
