This week we worked on Bluetooth, ensured the peristaltic pumps work correctly, and enabled user login and signup on the application. We ran into some roadblocks setting up the Bluetooth connection but have a solid understanding of what needs to be done to finalize the setup. We were able to write Arduino code which enables us to pour drinks into a cup directly from liquid bottles. Additionally, enabled functionality for user login and signup directly from the app.
We also met to discuss and finalize the plans for the demo next week and in this process, we also updated our Gantt chart to reflect our progress and also track where we can improve.
In the coming week, we will finalize the Bluetooth connection initialization and work on the mechanical structure for our project. For our upcoming demo this week, we’re planning on having our Bluetooth communication functioning in order to successfully send and process a drink order.
