Jason’s Status Update 10/9/2021

This week I worked with my teammates to refine the design presentation. Since most of our parts have been finalized, I have started building the software foundations for the project.  I downloaded the STM32 development environment, set up a project based on the Nucleo board, created a Github repository, and generated code for serial ports using the built-in configurator.

I also conceptualized the code on a high level, and found that our code would be a single task with a period of ~10Hz, the update rate of the sensor. To enforce this periodicity, we will have to find solutions such as RTOS. I also saw possible concerns with our two microwave sensors being out of sync, and am currently discussing with my teammates for a possible mitigation strategy.
