Work Accomplished:
This week, I was able to make the hardware device completely portable and start up all scripts upon connection to the power bank. As soon as the rasberry pi starts up, it can run two scripts setting up the MQTT connection, and start sending scanned products to the mobile app. I also was able to configure the Rasberry Pi to automatically configure to hotspot, so it can start up immediately in store.
Progress Status:
I am currently on progress with our schedule. My main job now is testing the device at Aldi’s through the full pipeline of scanning a product and testing its product recognition accuracy.
Next Week’s Goal:
- full integration testing
