Team Status Report for 2/20/2021

This week, the most significant risks that could jeopardize our success is ordering the correct parts for our project. Since so much of our project relies on the physical assembly and connection of parts that we have to buy, both time and money could be waste if we purchase the wrong ones. As such, we will do even more extensive research and be sure to create a budget outline to allocate for extra parts in case something does go wrong during our initial build.

As of now, since are have only begun our project, we’ve only just created a more so detailed design of our system. During this process, we did add some additional features for customization of body expressions after realizing that there is a lot we can do with Open Pose, the library that we plan on using to recognize and manipulate body expression inputs. This change was necessary because we wanted our project to be interesting and challenging enough given our manpower and time constraint for this semester long project.
