This week, we had much to do. Redesigns, bugs, and COVID have pushed us behind schedule. We are on our last slack week next week.
Edward and Joanne have been working on fine-tuning the finger detection and model rotation. The system does not work well on live “real” data and seems to have erratic and random behaviors at times. Hopefully, by the end of this week, we can have a really good version working. We will spend the majority of next week working on this.
Edward and Joanne have also bought black acrylic for the hologram. They attempted the glue the acrylic together, but the glue was not as sticky as we wanted. So, Anushka drafted a new version of the hologram using slots to fit the walls together like a puzzle. Hopefully, we can get this cut and built next week.
We’ve also been working on the final presentation. It’s a good thing we have some time before demo day, but we’re excited to present our findings and what we’ve done so far in the semester.
In good news, the hardware has not bugged out on us yet. It seems fairly reliable so far. We still need to properly sew the board unto the wristband. This should be done by early next week.
Next week will be an extremely busy week for us. Wish us luck!
