Progress report 5/4
In the past week, I’ve finalized some design issues in the guiding page and recorded the video for user interface.
Zeyi’s Update 4/25
Changed the map of the shopping to the form of “multiple items on a single node”. Formatted the interface’s cart-guiding page by adding a picture of the map to it. Changed the Node List and Item List to display the remaining nodes and items on the planned route. Implemented all functions of the simulation buttons. To-do: further revise the look of the pages testing the interface for bug
Zeyi’s Weekly Report 4/22
Finished Integrating the user interface with the algorithm for the final demo. Added buttons for simulations of finding obstacles, and implemented functions of skipping and placing items. Next step: Furnishing the cart tracking page for the final presentation, seperate the simulation and tracking components.
Zeyi’s Progress Report Apr. 12
Updated some features of the user interface’s second page. Added a button for the user to skip the current item. Implemented the feature that the user would be notified when the cart arrives at the current item, and an event loop that simulates the process that the cart travels on the map. The next step of the user interface part will be integrating with the path planning algorithm and refining the look of the interface.
April 5th Zeyi’s Progress Report
Finish some basic functions of the User Interface. User can add or deduct the number of items from the first page, and click submit to save the data in the local database (which Zehong’s algorithm will read and calculate the optimal path). The second page is currently a dummy, to demo that the User Interface can jumps to the second page after clicking the submit button. The display of current & next item and the planned path will be implemented…
March 25 Zeyi’s Progress Report
Done with the basic layout of the first page of user interface with 6 items. It can now add or minus the number of items with the buttons. I will be working on adding an input box to enter the number of items and implement the Submit button’s function (save the item list in the database) for the next step.
Zeyi and Carlos Progress Report Week 2
Looked into how the user interface would communicate with the Raspberry Pi. Studied the python interface web socket (https://websockets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html). Decided to keep the user interface local on the Raspberry Pi, and have it displayed to user through a touch screen (Pi Foundation Display – 7” touchscreen). Researched the rangefinder and load sensor. Decided on load cell amplifier hx711 and ultrasonic module hc-sr04 in the end. Looked into how the hardwares listed above could be connected to the Raspberry Pi. Added the…
