Initial iterations of the device drivers for the IR receiver and external flash memory have been finished. The codebase is less messy, but there are some restructuring changes that will be finished. Since Sharon has began testing some of the initial firmware, I started a new branch to begin integrating FreeRTOS for task management; this will ideally help with some of the contention and aid with overall robustness and handling. This involves additional restructuring of the code so that various blocks can be more cleanly organized into tasks.
For deliverables, I created more polished versions of our block diagrams for the design presentation this week and started work on the design report document.
I remain on schedule. Next week, I will work with Sharon to complete the first hardware order of the semester so we can get the PCB fabricated as well as begin more thorough development testing for our drivers and overall use-case flow.
