This week I have really gotten to dive into working on the iOS application, which was nice. Had some bugs to deal with, which took longer than they should have to navigate because this is my first time working with xcode / swift. I’ve also started to look at more demo apps to hopefully speed up this process, rather than trying to learn everything myself from scratch. Also spent a good chunk of time investigating how the bluetooth communication will…
This week we all continued to work individually on our parts of the project. No real changes to our design or schedule. Next week we would like to try to get all of our parts at least far enough for the demo and integrate what we have.
This week I continued to work on and implement the image processing part of the project. I implemented the part to pick the section of the image the object we are trying to detect probably is in, based on which section has the most edges after blurring. I also implemented a k-nearest neighbors classifier. I have also put together the full workflow for the object recognition part (so the only parts that need to be improved are all of the…
This week in 18-500 Drafting of the custom sensor mount This will be the custom computer drafted 3-D printed plastic board that the 4 sensors will mount to, and the board will mount to the chest harness. The reason for a custom board is because of the need for precision in the relative angles of the LiDar sensors. Below is hand drafts and measurement collections for the Computer-Model. I have begun editing in Inventor Pro. The left page is raw data measurements and drawings of…
