Ryan’s Status Report for 3/19

This week, I finalized ordering the rest of the hardware for the project, including picking switching regulators to supply 5V and 3.3V from our 3.7V battery, and figuring out a charging solution for the battery as well. With this, the hardware should all be ordered and in house next week, and once the last of these components arrive, I am excited to put everything together! In addition, I worked on the ethics assignment and thought about various aspects of the ethicality of our project, and started to look at some of the existing hardware code Jake has written to familiarize myself with it.

Next week, I will be looking forward to some interesting ethics discussions, and am hoping that the rest of the parts will be in so I can assemble everything! Although I am slightly behind schedule, as I would have liked to be writing some code to initialize the sensors by now, I am not worried about getting this done by the interim demo, and hope to have everything up and running by then.
