Patrick’s Status Report for 2/21

I had a pretty busy week this week, so I wasn’t able to work on this capstone until later in the week. With that said, I made great progress on the goggle CAD. As a group we decided it would be easier to make the entire set of goggles with CAD since we would be adding so much hardware to it anyways.

I was able to get a general outline for the goggles done, including an indented holder for the lens. On top of this, I added slot holders for both the Pi Camera 3 and beamsplitter. I will likely change the beamsplitter holders, and the whole CAD certainly needs refining. With that said, I feel like I accomplished a significant amount, especially considering CAD is not my area of expertise.

Given that I have had a busy week, I did not find the time to research OCR models, but the CAD is definitely a higher priority anyways.

I still feel like we’re pretty on schedule. The monochrome OLED arrived on Friday, so we have nearly all of our hardware.

Next week, I plan on continuing to refine the CAD model, working on the Design document, and possibly researching OCR models or testing hardware.
