Caroline’s Status Report for 4/9/2023

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).

This past week, I was able to get Bluetooth connection from the Arduino Nano BLE onto my phone.

In addition, I was trying to transfer the circuit design of the pressure sensors onto the Arduino Nano BLE instead of the Arduino Uno. However, when I tried to do this, the outputs that the pressure sensors were giving me were random, unusable outputs. I have been trying to debug this problem, but I have not successfully found a solution. My theories as to why this is happening are that the specific Arduino Nano BLE that I have is not working perfectly or that the connections to the Arduino Nano BLE aren’t secure, since I haven’t soldered the pins onto the Nano.

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 that my progress is behind schedule. I have been having lots of difficulties with the Arduino Nano BLE and its connections, which makes it hard to test and move on with my part of the project. I will be spending a lot of time in the next week debugging the Arduino and getting it to work.

What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?

In the next week, I hope to figure out everything that is wrong with the Arduino Nano BLE and fix the issues so that I can work on integration in the next week. In addition, if I have time, I will be writing up the code for the interface to allow for the app to talk to the Arduino instead of another phone app that I downloaded.
