What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files or
photos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort into the project over the course of the week (12+ hours).
A large portion of the week was spent working on the design report. It actually was easier than I initially expected due to the preparation we did from the entire design iteration process, as we had most of our ideas down when we did the slides.
I also started writing the system code for the microcontroller of the glove module. Specifically, I started writing code that would read sensor data from the various pins and started implementing an MQTT client that would pack and transmit this packet over a network.
Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?
I think we’re on track as we adjusted our schedule last week.
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
I hope to finish the main code of this glove microcontroller and assemble a basic breadboard representation of the glove module. This is to ensure everything will be working before soldering any component onto the glove.
As you’ve now established a set of sub-systems necessary to implement your project, what new tools have your team determined will be necessary for you to learn to be able to accomplish these tasks?
I’m not necessarily learning anything new, but probably would need to sharpen up my soldering skills.
