This week, I spent most of my time finishing up the project overall. Dina, Sam, and I worked together to connect the Arduino from Sam’s circuit to the RPi. I wrote the code on the RPi to read the ID card number from the serial monitor on the Arduino and then send the request with the ID number and the time to our web app server. We were able to successfully scan several different IDs on the RFID circuit and keep track of the entry and exit times on the web server backend. I also set up the backend to send both the live and predicted wait times to the frontend to be displayed on the web page.
My progress is currently on schedule. Next week, I hope to wrap everything up by finishing up the poster, preparing for the final demo, and writing the final report. I will also make any necessary final changes to the project overall.
