This past week, I tried to adjust to the shift to online classes. I got back to Pittsburgh on Sunday the 15th, but spent a majority of the week packing up all my belongings. I plan to drive back home tomorrow (Sunday the 22nd) so that I can be with my family during the pandemic.
That being said, I worked with my team to create a modified statement of work (see our content page). This document serves to show how we have changed our scope and requirements to better fit the necessary shift to an almost entirely software project. Based off of our discussions, it seems that both my interaction layer and Richard’s webapp will remain largely unchanged, while Rip’s hardware will need some level of change. Prior to this change, my interaction layer was to interact with the hardware through an API that allows me to read sensor data, and write commands to control the devices. Since we no longer have hardware, Rip will recreate a similar API so that my code can continue to function as before, but he will implement a software library behind the API to emulate the hardware.
