Katherine’s Status Report for 02/14

ACCOMPLISHED: 

This week, I worked on the design presentation. After meeting with Prof. Theo on Monday, we decided that we need to scope down our MVP. My team and I worked on creating the user walk through and aligning on a few major details. The first one being whether or not we want to include indoor tracking as a part of our MVP. We ultimately decided against it as we were still unsure of how we wanted to implement indoor tracking and at this point we needed to be certain of our MVP. I also worked on understanding the server side. I researched into API integration with Google Maps and how to set up our servers. We also spent a while on UI designs and user journey. Our product has many states (sleep, searching, etc.) and we wanted to draw out exactly what these states meant and how our interface will allow users to go from one state to the next. 

PROGRESS / SCHEDULE:

My progress is on track. My tasks for this week was to set up servers, research API integration, and create user journey and UI. Our major goal this week was to design + order to PCB, which would allow us to integrating and testing our UI and communication.

DELIVERABLES / NEXT STEPS:

Next Week, I will:

  • Integrate API to node.js
  • Decide on communication protocols
