Our team had to focus more on the ethics assignment that was released to be due on Monday as well as the lecture on Wednesday. As a team, we’ve been trying to integrate our individual work, which didn’t happen last week as we had hoped. Because of this pushback, we will have to focus much more on connecting the pipelines between software and hardware as well as make sure our individual products still work as intended.
With the ethics assignment, we were also presented with other topics to think about in regards to our project, which would be more on the user side of this project. How would we prevent people from using our data for ill-intent (aka knowing the number of students in the UC at a time)? What would we do about people who don’t want their data collected in terms of occupancy? These are definitely problems we should confront.
Since we are behind schedule, we hope to catch up a lot more in class the following week as well as make sure software and hardware form a pipeline.
