At the start of the week, I worked with my other groupmates to prepare slides for the proposal presentation presented by Xuan. We refined our requirements based on feedback provided from our initial proposal submission.
I also refined our block diagram this week.
After discussion with my group, we decided to modify our original design. Instead of using a Jetson as the controller for the compute module, we decided to make use of a Raspberry Pi 4 with a Coral TPU accessory instead. This works better because of many reasons:
- Raspberry Pi + Coral TPU is significantly cheaper than a Jetson
- Raspberry Pi supports Wi-Fi out-of-the-box
- Jetson doesn’t appear to support HID behavior
Later in the week, after finalizing our block diagram, I helped draft our Bill of Materials. After we finalized our list, I put in the orders on the Google Form.
