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).
I finished the MQTT portion for the code of the microcontroller. There was a decision made to hold 10 data packets on the glove side before transmission in order to reduce network traffic, as the minimum time interval in reading the IMU data is around 10ms. This might change with further testing though. I also started with the desktop application that we’re using for the configuration and calibration, which would be written using the Qt library.
Currently, it has the option to switch between left and right-hand mode, but the calibration process isn’t written yet as I think the compute module would need to be done before that. I’m also finishing up breadboarding the glove circuit.
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.
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
I hope to further test using the breadboard circuit and integrate it with the MQTT portion of the compute module to see if there is a need to further optimize the network latency.
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. I also probably would need to sharpen my skills in Qt.
