Seaver Dahlgren’s Status Report 3/18/23

What did you personally accomplish this week on the project?

This week I started by identifying the new ball shape for our golf ball. Last week, we discovered that the original vendor for the ball only accepted minimum orders of 400 balls. This would be too much for our budget, so I had to scope out alternatives. I found a couple of CAD designs that we can use to 3d print the balls in TechSpark.  I am going to schedule the prints this weekend. I also added a couple of new elements to the Web App. When individuals record their names on the initial webpage, the names should be stored in an SQLite database. The webpage will redirect to a new URL with the current session ID. This is where the stats will be displayed. I am currently in the process of writing the APIs that will allow the RPI to update the Stats Page.

Is your progress on schedule or behind?

We are currently on schedule. I am hoping to finish the web app APIs this weekend, so I can begin integration with CJ on the sensors and the RPI.  We missed Erik this week, so I had to do a lot of work on my own for the Systems/software end of things.

What steps will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?

I am going to keep pushing forward with the APIs this weekend and Monday so that we can begin integration coming into next week. I believe that with Erik back we will be ready to integrate the whole project.

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

With CJ working on the IMU Bluetooth. We should begin integrated the whole project by next week. I want to have a working version of the Web App. I also want to be able to print the golf ball as soon as I can, so we can run the IMU on that. Lastly, we need to begin testing the IMU on the clubs and figure out if we need to use any of our contingency-planned sensors later if they are not working out.
