Kristina’s Status Report for 10/18/2025

UART Pi5 to Pico Communication Code

  • Began writing code for UART communication between Pi5 and Pico

Design Report and Research

  • Focused on finishing the Design Report and polishing all sections for submission
  • Strengthened justifications for system and model design tradeoffs

Schedule & Progress

  • On schedule:
    • All off-the-shelf parts have arrived
    • Custom part dimensions verified and adjusted to match real measurements
    • Plan to send out custom cut parts after Fall Break
  • Behind schedule:
    • UART Pi5-Pico communication delayed due to debugging
    • Minor delays from Pi5 setup and network configuration issues

Next Steps

  • Begin setup and partial assembly of testbed
  • Continue debugging UART communication
  • Assist with sensor integration and PWM control code
