Lev’s Status Report 04/23/22

This past week I spent some time testing out our algorithm and adjusting specific parameters. I found that we had to decrease the noise threshold for tripping the sound parameter. I also worked on trying to fix some of the issues presented by the heart rate sensor. The sensor gives an inconsistent readout, especially on the wrist. I tried to see if it was possible to improve the readout by using a Fast Fourier Transform on the signal from the HR monitor. Unfortunately, the signal itself is not reliable enough, as if the heart rate monitor momentarily is unable to pick up a pulse, then the Heart Rate given by the fourier transform is inaccurate. Moreover, I worked to fix up some bugs. The algorithm code had some problems where it did not fail if there were 2 criteria tripped. Also, I worked on helping to improve some of the frontend style.
