This week was dedicated to our ethics discussions. It was a useful experience as it definitely helped open my eyes and see some ethical considerations we hadn’t thought of before. In terms of more technical work, I spent some time coding up our IMU script. I have settled on using the wrapper functions rather than tinkering with the raw data as the raw data is formatted in a way that parsing through it manually myself will introduce a bunch of unnecessary overhead and make it difficult to hit our proposed latency goals. I have been struggling a little bit to get the rotation vector working properly since all provided angles are positive. It has then been difficult to differentiate a tilt from the left versus a tilt from the right. Its unclear if this will cause future issues for us when it comes to calculating line position so I want to debug this as thoroughly as possible before reaching that point. I have also finally been able to purchase Uduino after help from the ECE purchasing. I have not yet tested how well Uduino works with our NodeMCU board.<\/p>\n
I am still slightly behind schedule because by now I should have the double integration script working. However, the next few weeks have been allotted for debugging and fine-turning, which is technically what I am working on right now. I will be working on this a little bit over the weekend to hopefully figure out this little bump and be right on schedule.<\/p>\n
Next week will be spent fine tuning our IMU script and trying to test its integration with Uduino to send data over to our Android devices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
