Team Status Report for 3/29/2025

Risks and Contingency Plans

  • Firmware Compatibility Issues : The updated firmware is compilable on different machines and we were able to successfully flash the firmware to the new PCB. However, functional issues may still occur after further testings. So far we have been able to fix the bugs, but if the plan doesn’t work, we would move back to the original firmware and build upon that.
  • Product quality : The prototype we currently have may break after a lot of trials. We have been collecting data to train model using our version 1 PCB, and noticeable damage has been caused (one of the buttons is no longer sensitive and the battery port is falling off. We are trying to do most of the testing and trainings on version 1 PCB and development board so that our version 2 PCB remains new.

Design Changes & Impact

There is no design changes at this point. We are working on integrating everything and preparing for the interim design review


Schedule Updates
