This week, I worked on the design review presentation and on designing PCB schematics for our custom PCB. At the start of the week, I was working on designing schematics and researching necessary components to incorporate into our custom PCB (USB-C LiPo charger, LiPo batteries, etc.). However, Delaynie and I swapped responsibilities, with her taking over all PCB responsibilities while I take over firmware. As a result, I have only been able to download the required software programs needed to interface with the ESP32 module and screen.
Below is a screenshot of the schematic I made before swapping tasks.
My progress is currently on track with the schedule despite my responsibilities changing.
Next week, I plan to test our RemiGotchi’s screen capabilities and how the PlatformIO software works with it and the ESP32. I will use some test sprites I designed to gauge how these graphics will be displayed and refine the device graphics for that.
