This week I focused on creating the PCB layout for our circuit thus far. I started off by drafting the circuit with each flex sensor and op amp. Then we had to finalize which board we are using which we did altogether (determining if Bluetooth would meet our latency needs). We finally decided to stick with the Arduino Nano BLE Sense Rev2 and I added in those headers into the schematic. Finally, I added headers for a battery, and headers for the speaker and haptic motor.
The next thing I did this week was solder five more flex sensors to red white wire pairs so that they can be ready to attach to the second glove. Now that our first glove works, we decided to parallelize the tasks needed to be done to duplicate it. The next thing I’ll focus on for the following week is getting the speaker and haptic motor driver to work on one glove.
