Accomplishments this week:
I worked on reconfiguring the jetson jetpack so that we can get the correct pylibrealsense module. This involved reflashing our SD card, researching the compatible modules with our new Ubuntu v20.04, and reinstalling all of the compatible modules. After that, I wrote code for distance detection and was able to get distance detection working at 9 different points. Lastly, I was able to integrate that distance detection code with Cynthia’s CV code (see photo below for distance detection on 9 points integrated with the CV code).

Reflection on schedule:
We did a lot this week with integrating distance, CV, and haptics so we are on track.
Plans for next week:
My plan is to work on wall detection with the distance code. Additionally, we plan on writing code for the force sensitive resistors and plan to start building our cane.
