Davids Status Report for 3/21

What did you personally accomplish this week on the project?

I wrote code for pwm decoding and lcd screen. I then tested this code and did some debugging until it worked on the pico / breadboards we have set up. Then, I combined my codebase with DJs code that connected the Pi V2T with the pico and we were able to setup a full line of communication. ie Voice to text to pi to pico to LED to receiver to pico to LCD screen. This was more or less one directional tech mvp.

Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?

I am solidly ahead of schedule. We now have one directional transmission with high accuracy. There are hopefully some photos of this in team report.

What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?

Next week our main focus is on the second direction of communication. This includes some protocol handling for if 2 people are speaking at the same time. We will also spend some time on accuracy debugging. It seems like our accuracy is dependent on our V2T software (which we dont have control over), however this accuracy can be fine tuned with microphone placement. We will be testing this more soon so we know how to properly mount our devices.
