This week I worked on testing the PCB. I started by checking that the dimensions of the pins were accurate to plug the Arduino and sensors into. After noticing that the current draw for the DC DC step up motor caused the batteries to die really fast, we decided to scrap that idea and just put two 3.7V batteries in series to power the Arduino. Since we decided not to use a step up motor, I desoldered the mounting pins for that and that opened up space to mount the batteries.
I then worked on testing that haptic feedback would work on the Arduino. Somya worked on getting a signal from the computer via bluetooth that could trigger feedback. I worked on testing that the I2C circuit on the PCB with the haptic motor driver worked. I used an Adafruit example library and found that it worked fine.
I then made a 3D CAD model for a case for the PCB, batteries, and motor driver that will be secured to the glove with velcro and some adhesive on the back of the hand. I plan on finalizing this look by the end of next week.
