Sarah’s Status Report for 2/27/2021

On Monday, I presented my group’s proposal. After presenting, I updated the “proposal presentation slides” page on our WordPress by replacing the plain URL with an into an image of our first slide with an embedded URL.

On Thursday, after all the proposal presentations, I looked at the instructions for purchasing stuff, and at the parts inventory list. I saw that there are 2 Xavier AGX boards available, so I started searching for tutorial videos/articles online about the AGX with OpenPose. However, it seems like there are more resources about OpenPose on an NX board. I will continue searching for more about OpenPose on the AGX, though, because it seems more powerful than the NX based on it’s specs.

Our progress is behind schedule because we haven’t ordered a board yet. We originally wanted to have it ordered and shipped by this coming Monday, but we haven’t decided whether we want to change our board to the AGX yet.

To catch us up, I want to choose a board by Sunday. This is just in case we choose the NX,  because then we can still get it approved by the TA and place the order so it can be ordered by Tuesday. If we choose the AGX, then we’ll be on schedule, because we can get it approved by the TA probably on Monday, and pick it up on the same day.
