Rama’s Status Update for 03/21 (Week 5, 6)

Progress

We had to make some changes to the project to deal with remote work. Taking into consideration Marios’ suggestions, we will be proceeding with the three major sections but will be decoupling the parts and communicating between them by sending prerecorded data around. I spent some time this week trying to get Webots to run on the Xavier board but was unable to get it to work with the unsupported ARM processor. After our decision to work with our original hardware, I pivoted to work on recognizing the Roomba and user. There is limited testing that can be done without videos from the new environment, but I am moving forward making large assumptions that can be tailored to fit our actual hardware once it is delivered.

Deliverables next week

I want to finish recognizing the Roomba and user and start to create a mockup of how the map will be represented.

Schedule

Readjusted expectations for remote work; waiting on hardware delivery.
