This week I completed my work on the Notecard. I connected the RPi and the Notecard together. I wrote some code which allowed me to upload a photo and metadata. This went pretty smoothly but I did have some issues with the upload issue speed initially. I worked with Kevin to debug any issues which were completely able to solve. Our uploads when timed were actually under 1 minute by a lot, even when underground. I then did some later work to deal with some Firebase issues where we were having duplicate uploads and our functions weren’t triggering. Next week, I want to actually connect the RPi to the car and make sure everything can work.
