Jade’s Status Update for Apr 18

This week I worked on improving the pi’s main function as well as cleaning up the socket code. Specifically I worked on making it so that the program would close the sockets when done running and also not hang if something happened to a socket connection. I am stuck on the problem of detecting when the client suddenly drops connection and having the server respond to that when the server was polling for a read.

Along with working on socket code I also worked with Abha and Ashika on integrating all of our parts to work on the hardware that Abha has.

I am on track, however have not started working on phase vocoding, which I have decided not to pursue in order to focus more on getting the MVP working.

Next week I hope to do some measurements on speech recognition metrics, test KATbot, as well as clean up my code.
