We met several times this week on campus in HH 1307. We unfortunately hit an obstacle in our positional tracking of the glove. We discovered that doing background substitution in OpenCV with IR LEDs adds way too much latency. We saw that moving an IR LED across the screen with gray-scaling and background substitution has a 1 second delay on screen.
We’ve almost completed soldering the parts for the glove (FLORA, mux, microcontrollers, battery holder). Still need to solder the bluetooth module and IMU (not arrived yet).
Still on schedule for the demo
Next week, we will finish soldering all the parts on the glove, finalize the positional tracking, and write the haptic feedback Arduino code.
