Spent much of Sunday and Monday morning preparing for my presentation. I then took some more time playing with the iOS SDK until I was comfortable with the syntax and the XCode IDE. Developed some initial UI for the video playback feature using the Photos and Vision API. I plan to integrate an object tracker provided by the Vision API into this UI.
Now that I’ve found a solution for the object tracking using the Vision API, it’s taken a lot of the load off of the Computer Vision portion of the project, which will hopefully expedite the pathway towards integrating with the hardware.
Next week, I hope to have V1 of the object tracker working. Currently, I plan to have the user draw a bounding box around the barbell plate in their side view, so I have something to iterate on if I decide to later use a model to detect the plate automatically. I also hope to integrate with the hardware and be able to read data over Bluetooth.
