This week, I spent most of my time preparing for my Design Review Presentation. I have also been doing some research on the specific materials we will be using for the frame where we will mount our camera and projector. I have also been weighing the pros and cons of the specific projector our team will be utilizing and narrowed it down to either the Yaber V6, which is better for keystone correction, allowing for +/- 50 degrees of rotation, or the ViewSonic PA503W, which has very good low input lag. I will decide by Monday and have it ordered by Tuesday. I set up some of the Design Review Report already and will be meeting with Samuel and Kyi on Sunday (2/23) to organize and work on the report. The majority of my time in the next two weeks will be focused on the report as well as:
- Ordering the materials for the frame
- Building the frame
- Helping Samuel with simulating slots and assisting with the development of the best shot algorithm
I am a bit behind schedule because I was planning to start the actual building of the frame this past week. However, since the pool table has not arrived, this has delayed my progress a bit. This week, however, I do not have much work from other classes and therefore can allocate a larger portion of my week to building the frame and working on the Design Report and best shot algorithm.
