- Collaborated with team to find alternatives and solutions for NodeMCU struggles. Settled on buying the boards from another manufacturer and that seemed to work.
- Created a metrics document for the driver model
- This related the vehicle speeds and the various distances the vehicle would travel in case it needed to come to a stop
- Used the metrics to determine the size of our track
- # of cars * (Total following distance between cars + Length of cars) = Circumference of one track
- Performed tests with the vehicles in order to determine max vehicle speed and also a stopping distance
- Worked on design review presentation slides
- Slightly behind schedule with regards to the path planning algorithms. The major roadblock with the NodeMCUs and the construction of our vehicles was necessary to overcome in lieu of the design presentation (needed numbers for our presentation)
- TODOs:
- Need to do more research and start the codebase for the path planning
- Non-cooperative case does not seem too challenging, but need to find a good solution for the cooperative case.
