This week, I met with Jenny and Bradley to refine more of our project details surrounding our testing, verification, and metrics after getting feedback from Professor Kim. We also ordered our parts and they should be arriving soon.

I also did some research on the details of both our software and hardware programs. I looked into how the sensor, bluetooth, and button pieces will connect with the Arduino Micro. I found several examples online displaying which pins will be connected. Also, for our gesture recognition algorithm, I researched convolutional neural networks and Python libraries that make use of this and have found a few, such as Keras  and TensorFlow.

Finally, I worked with Bradley and Jenny this week to refine both our hardware and software block diagrams using Figma. We also created our Design Presentation slides and filled out most of the speaker notes.

I think we are on time for our project this week. We made progress in our design specifications and are close to getting the parts. We will be meeting again early tomorrow to finalize the presentation so I can run through it before class on Monday.
