Sid Lathar, A1 | Progress Report #2
Accomplishment:
As mentioned in the previous week’s report the goal for this week was to test the bluetooth connection from the app to the Arduino. This was achieved this week by running the Hello World app on the phone and turning a LED on/off repeatedly. This worked reliably every time. To start implementing the app, I wrote a java method which finds the nearest intersection, given a latitude and longitude. This will be used to notify the rider of an intersection before he approaches it.
Changes to schedule:
The progress is on schedule.
Upcoming work:
By next week I plan to implement this method into an android app which can get the current coordinates of the phone and find the nearest intersection and ping the user when he’s approaching it.
