This week saw the testing portion of our capstone take off. Felipe started talking to other students to review the UI of the desktop app, Delaynie tested the functionality of the gps portion of the device and timed how long it took to start connecting to satellites, and Italia continued testing out different graphic libraries to find out which one works best for our use case. Such testing will be incorporated into our final presentation which will be happening this week.
In terms of what we have left before the final demo, integration between the board and the companion app has been nearly completed, as Felipe and Delaynie were able to establish what a sent schedule looks like and how a schedule is turned into a stream of bytes to send, and have confirmed that the bytes can be sent within and acceptable range of time (around 1-1.5 seconds).
In terms of changes there are very few. Felipe has really nailed down what the UI is looking like and while Italia has made some changes to the colors of some graphics, the core look remains the same.
Overall we are excited to finish the semester strong and are looking forward to showing off our hard work in the coming weeks.
