Jordan’s status report for 3/23

This week, I completed more soldering work for the saxophone fingering system. The soldering of the sensors took a longer than expected due to the small size of the sensor, and getting the PCB for the sensor into its small shape also took longer with a minor injury as well. Due to this, the completion of the system will be pushed back one week to two weeks from now. However, I have also completed testing of all work done, which contributed to the delay, but it means less testing down the line. Specifically, I made sure that each sensor worked, and that the response time was within spec. The response time is not noticeable for typical use case, and whatever delay there is will not impact user experience.

For next week, I aim to finish installing the magnets and sensors onto the saxophone.
