The majority of my work this week revolved around starting the creation of the Python backend using the OpenCV library. I started by laying out a basic workflow for how I envisioned this part of the system working. It consists Read more…
This week was sort of a bigger jump for us because we really started to get more technical and start to think about implementation details and really hammer down some of the bigger pictures. To start we began by making Read more…
This week we were able to get more insight on what our CNN design should look like, feedback from our professors and TA. From this new direction we looked more into encoder/decoder style and got a better understanding of what Read more…
This week we were able to focus on the input we got back from our professors. Specifically since we got the green light for our hardware, I was able to look more into OpenCV, multithreading, and how video recording would Read more…
For this week I was able to do more research on the Jetson Nano. I wanted to ensure I had a clear understanding of how to interact with the microcontroller for both the camera use and the LED use. I Read more…
This week I personally spent much of my time helping and working on the team’s slides for the presentation as well as double checking everything on it since I was our presenter. This meant for me at least other background Read more…
So this week consisted of a lot of research for me, I started off by looking at most of the relevant resources from the original paper we are building our CNN from, project website found here. The first thing I Read more…
This week we were able to present our proposal slides to our peers, Prof. Sullivan, and our TA. It allowed us to share our ideas, plan of action, and next steps as a team. During this presentation, we encountered some Read more…
Since this is only the first week, I have been compiling information for our necessary items. I was able to find the camera we need to use for the project, http://linuxgizmos.com/jetson-nano-gains-3-4-megapixel-hd-camera/. I also contributed to our teamwork on our proposal and configuring our slides for the presentation. Currently, Read more…
Given that this is our first week my main goals were brain storming ideas about the project and researching software packages, hardware components, and algorithms that we would likely use over the course of the project. This led me to Read more…
