What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files or photos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort into the project over the course of the week (12+ hours)
This week, Freda and I spent some time assembling the PCBs. It took a while to get the soldering mask aligned properly since the we had so many small components. Additionally, we ran into a small delay since some of the SMD components we were hoping to use were not restocked. I messed up soldering one of the header pins onto one of the PCB boards and it took a bit of time to desolder it, but everything worked out fine in the end.
Also, I spent some time starting the backend of the web app. For now, we are pushing bluetooth connection until after the interim demo to give us more time to focus on other features. The goal now is to get the database readings working on the app by the end of next week to demo. For now, we are using Firebase because it is a real time database with a free plan that can suit our needs.
Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?
I am slightly behind since the bluetooth integration on the web app is still not done yet. That has been pushed back to allocate more time for the backend of the web app.
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
Since the interim demo is in one week, I am prioritizing getting as many features of the web app completed as possible. The integration with the bracelet will have to wait. The plan is to have web app and bracelet working separately by April 1st (demo day), with integration and bluetooth connection happening the week afterwards.
