This week I started working on the CV portion of our project. I was doing research into openCV and started writing up programs that would loop through many photos of pool tables with balls to be able to train it to recognize pool balls.  I also worked on the design proposal presentation and have been practicing for that presentation because I will be presenting it next week. Our schedule has been slightly shifted due to the parts for the frame arriving late but I am on schedule because I have worked ahead on the CV.  I hope to complete the frame next week, if we get the parts in to build it, and finish writing the CV program to detect pool balls. My team used principles for 18-349, Embedded Systems,  and 18-341, Logic Design and Verification, to help us design our project.

This week I was unfortunately sick for the first half of the week so I wasn’t able to work then. After I was able to work with my team on ordering parts for our projects. I also started planning how to build the frame that will hold the camera and the projector. We are slightly behind due to the fact that the order form opened late so we couldn’t get any of the parts we need and also because I was sick so I couldn’t start working in the first half of the week. I hope to complete the frame for next week and start working on image capturing and the CV portion of our project.
