Weekly Update #4 (3/3-3/9)

Team

At the beginning of the week, we focused a lot on finalizing our design and completing the design document. After that was done, we worked on our individual portions of the project. Writing the design document took a lot more time than originally estimated, however, so we didn’t end up spending as much time on actual implementation of the project as we had previously hoped. Though since we didn’t make any big changes again this week and we had given some time for the design document, we believe that our work is still on track towards the midpoint demos.

In addition to spending a lot of time working on the design document with Brian and Umang and working on other capstone assignments due (Ethics assignment), I started collecting the ground truth data. The first step in that is creating an application where I can perform a pose multiple times in front of my camera and the joint data will be saved in JSON format. Once I’m done creating that application, I will collect multiple instances of every pose that we are aiming to do. My goal is to have that complete in the next couple weeks so that we have data to test soon after we get back from Spring Break.

This week was spent working on the algorithms to detect the difference between the user poses and the instructor poses. I took some example json data to help with the task. I will continue working on this after Spring Break, and hope to finish that week on initial construction of the algorithm. I also worked on the ethics assignment, as well as further refinement of our design.

Umang

This week I worked on the angular domain calculations. How can we find a scale and shift invariant domain wherein we can compare pose estimates. Due to PhD visits during spring break, I won’t be able to contribute to this over the coming week. However, I hope to finish the transformation specifics by the end of the following week such that we have a rough draft of our pipeline by the first week in April.
