Accomplishments for Week 13: Full automation of LED program from Lizzy’s OMR side (MusicXML file and start text file) as well as Vanessa’s side (end text file with performance scores). Ran user studies with five people for feedback on teaching system. Got varied feedback about complexity during first try but that it gets better with more playing. They would love real-time feedback in the future but are okay with feedback on various measures at the end of the song. Video…

Accomplishments for week 12: Completed Beats-per-minute conversion to 5 fixed options (Very fast, fast, medium, slow, Very slow) in my code as well as for performance evaluator code. We decided on creating one front end GUI (on Lizzy’s side) for user to select their options and these selections will be sent in a text file to the Pi and also the performance evaluator for optimal performance. Receiving of Text file indicates start of LED teaching module for that outputXML song…

In general, the risks are that something just becomes trickier or take longer than we expected so our schedule will be compensated and we will need to reevaluate needs at the time and how to adjust our schedule. We are waiting on feedback from our Mid Semester demo to make extensive changes if needed…

Accomplishments for Week 9: Finished algorithm for parsing XML and MusicXML files to extract data about song notes. Storing data in SongNote struct that each contains Step, Alter, Octave, Type and Staff information of each key being pressed on the piano keyboard. Am creating three different kinds of SongNote categories – Treble clef (Right hand), Bass clef (Left hand) and Rests in both clefs. Can read any possible song’s xml and MusixXML files now. Finished algorithm to convert SongNote structs…
