This week, I collaborated with my team to finalize the proposal presentation slides. This included refining our user case requirements and engaging in an in-depth discussion on testing methodologies for different project components. We ensured that each aspect of our design was well-justified and accounted for potential testing strategies.
Additionally, I conducted further research into the communication protocols we will be using between the Raspberry Pi (RPI) and our Django-based web application. This involved understanding how we will handle data transmission for the sensors and the camera module.
To ensure we received the necessary hardware on time, I placed an early order for our first Raspberry Pi 5 unit. This will allow us to begin setup as soon as possible and secure the hardware before free units run out from inventory. As a team, we also finalized the list of initial components we plan to order for the base system.
Our project is currently on track. The planning phase is progressing well, and we expect to move into the implementation phase soon.
Our goals for next week include finalizing and placing the order for all remaining required components, specifically, the sensors we want to start on including temperature and light. We also want to begin setting up and testing the Raspberry Pi 5 to ensure compatibility with our planned system architecture.
