Accomplishments
This week I supported the interim demo by maintaining the Kar’s electronic systems and ensured that the Kar was properly setup for demo. This involved ensuring that the batteries were properly charged between demo sessions, and that the PCB was properly mounted to the Kar chassis. Additionally, after our demos I added an IMU to our Kar so that we can complete our haptic feedback loop between the Kar and the Kontroller.
Progress/Schedule
We are on schedule for the most part. I was hoping to attach the finger IMU sensor to the Kontroller this week, but was not able to. However, the lack of progress on this goal was cancelled out by successfully adding the Kar IMU.
Next Steps
Next week I will be attaching the finger IMU sensor to the glove PCB so that we can begin the transition from our breadboard control system to our final control system.
