Note: Our team has compressed our images, but the image upload quota is still full, so this report does not have photos and videos that we would have liked to attach. This week I helped with manufacturing our MVP prototype visor which involved a large amount of sanding and glueing. Read more…
This week I have finished wiring up all of the Visor Components. I have also integrated batteries into both the Visor and the Station systems. Another big focus this week was preparing for and performing the interim demos. Regarding Verification and Validation: We have verified that the data packets generated Read more…
This week I preformed some data collection integration tests where I sat outside of Hammerschlag Hall collecting data and ensuring that all of the formatting requirements for further down the pipeline are being meet along with ensuring that our data collection script doesn’t have any other issues. Building on the Read more…
This week I was able to read from all of our sensors when they were integrated all together. While system compatibility was paramount when selecting components to see all of the sensors having no communication conflicts, library issues, or other problems when integrated together is a relief. Once these integration Read more…
This week I got our pm sensor up and working with output that seemed to make sense. Additionally I got out GPS module up and running with accurate reports of its location. Also I have gotten the servos that will actuate the air dams working. Finally I have gotten our Read more…
This week the primary task was working on the design report. I primarily worked on the Test, Verification, and Validation, Project Management, Related Work, and Summary sections. I also wrote the sections on air quality sensor selection and how the software that will be collecting data from the sensors will Read more…
This week our parts order arrived allowing for us to make forward progress on the hardware side of our project. Once the parts came in I was able to get our RPIs setup and on the network so that we can ssh allowing for further development. After I was able Read more…
This week I have ordered all of the parts on our planned budget so far. This should allow us to create a working Sniff visor and Sniff Station. Additionally, I have setup meetings for next week with both a member of the BU team that completed a similar capstone project Read more…
This week I accomplished with my team, selecting the parts for the LoRa network that will be facilitating communication between the sensor box on the bike and the box located at the station. We also have selected a cellular board and service provider that we believe will work for our Read more…
