Thomas’s Status Report for 2/10/24

This week, I worked with my team on the project proposal. While brainstorming implementation details for foul detection, I suggested that our team should add a new feature to our 8-ball referee system which allows pool players to “call” the pocket they are aiming for by clicking on one of the pockets of the table in the web app UI. This is necessary to keep track of whether a ball (especially the 8-ball) has been legally pocketed or not according to the rules of the game.

I am behind schedule because I should’ve finished organizing implementation details and edge cases by this point.  According to the schedule, I should begin writing code that relies on camera input next week. To catch up to the project schedule, I’ll do research on Sunday to finish up organizing implementation details and edge cases (finding out what sensor data would be needed if I had ideal sensors). Once I’ve caught up, I can focus on working on next week’s deliverables, which can be pseudocode for the foul detection system that assumes valid camera input.
