Team Status Report for 3/4

Risks and Risk Management

After we received the D455 LIDAR camera, our most significant risk as of now is probably how our LAOE testing is dependent on not only our schedules, but the weather as well, as we can only test on sunny days. To combat this, we want to collect as much data as possible early on. So far, we have a few data points from sunny days previously in the semester, but we want to continue to collect as much as possible during varying times of day.

System Design Changes

There are no system design changes this week.

Schedule

The schedule has not changed, and everything on both the software side and hardware side are on track.

Teamwork Adjustments

No adjustments have been made as of now, as everyone is roughly still on schedule. All team members have been meeting up with each other throughout the week, and there are no new design challenges yet.

New Tools

With our finished Design Report, we have no new tools to learn besides the ones we had already planned on learning.

Dianne’s Status Report for 3/4

Progress

This week, I worked primarily on the Design Report. I focused on sections in design relating to the LAOE algorithm, such as illustrating and describing how the algorithm works in implementation, trade studies with figuring out the AOE with hardware, and the tests we plan to conduct in regards to LAOE. I also worked on the use case requirements and the architecture and principles of operation sections.

Schedule

So far, I am on schedule. This week is part of the algorithm implementation, which was started last week and is mostly complete except for some parts of the intersection detection and blinds change calculation.

Next Steps

Going forwards, I will finish up the LAOE algorithm and start setting up test cases so we can make sure everything is working correctly and make the necessary adjustments as soon as possible.
