This week’s accomplishments
- Attended mandatory labs
- Troubleshot the scale. There were bugs in the code that need to be ironed out
- Integrated the scale fully into the rpi. Accurate to the gram
- Integrated the temperature probe.
- both signals from the scale and probe are routed through the Arduino to the rpi, creating a sleek and simple method to allow for the data to be incorporated into the project
- Helped to integrate the water pump…still needs a good bit of work
Next weeks plan
- Demonstrate what I have finished up to this point.
- converted the analog scale into a scale that outputs signals readable by the rpi
- integrated the temperature probe
- tested the pump’s operation
- assembled and tested the movement of the 3D printer
- Implement the thermos into the project. Will need to work with signals from the temperature probe to monitor and adjust the temperature of the water
Status Report: On schedule
