Yilei’s Status Report for October 4

This week, I replaced the placeholder trapezoid with a QWERTY keyboard overlay, corrected calibration so the left and right index fingertips land exactly on the F/J key centers, ensured the video is mirrored but the labels are not, set the keyboard to the correct orientation relative to our intended hand orientation, and added a 10-second calibration window that automatically freezes the keyboard, with a recalibrate button to restart (the timer only counts down when it’s seeing both hands). 

I’m on schedule. I have made progress on calibration, defining the keyboard’s size and position from fingertip separation, and the AR overlay. 

Next week, I plan to add the remaining keys (number row, punctuation, and Shift, Enter, and Space), introduce tilt-aware horizontal and vertical scaling based on a fixed keyboard tilt (moving from “looks like perspective” to a consistent homography), and work on the image keyboard mapping (imagePointToKey function).
