This week we had the Ethics Lecture during class on Monday. On Wednesday we met as a team during class time. This past week has mainly been spent troubleshooting tasks in parallel. Yufei has been working on the perception system and was able to calibrate the camera sensor. This means we are able to get the point cloud data we need from the camera and he is now working on passing that data to octomap. The end goal is to do some preprocessing of the data in octomap and then pass it to our RRT implementation. Matt has been working on setting up the AMD Kria and has been in communication with an engineer from AMD. Chris’ has made progress on the inverse kinematics module and will be testing it starting next week.
Our goal is to complete our tasks within the next week and to begin integration as soon as possible. This integration task will likely take a significant amount of troubleshooting and calibration. That being said we are close to having a baseline implementation of our full system completed and are still on track for the Interm demo.
