This week I worked on the design presentation, and I practiced the presentation and then carried out the speech during class time. I also searched on the tof sensors’ working principle (measures distance by calculating the time taken by a light signal to travel to an object and return back to the sensor) and how it would be helpful for obstacle avoidance (by continuously measuring distance in front of it, and then detects if distance is smaller than predefined threshold, which then enables controller to take action).
Furthermore, our team divided responsibilities for the design report due next Friday. I will be working on the use-case requirements, design requirements, test & verification & validation, and system implementation. Our progress is on schedule this week. For next week, the main focus would be motor bring up and initial system testing.
