Personal Accomplishment
What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files or photos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort into the project over the course of the week (12+ hours).
This week, I focused on preparing for our interim demo, ensuring the integration and functionality of various components of the WalkGuard project, and advancing toward our final presentation. Key accomplishments include:
- Interim Project Demo
- Ensured that individual components (accelerometer, GPS, radar, and web app) were fully operational and demonstrated effectively.
- Created slides summarizing the challenges faced during development, including technical limitations and integration difficulties.
- Final Presentation Preparation
- Contributed majorly to the preparation of final presentation slides.
- Worked on preparation of the presentation.
- Practiced delivering the presentation, refining flow and key talking points.
- Pipelining Components and Subsystems
- For the interim demo, components were demonstrated individually. I contributed by pipelining the subsystems together into a single main file.
- Ensured connectivity between the web application and the Raspberry Pi pipeline.
- Identified areas where robustness testing is still required and began addressing these challenges.
Schedule
Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?
Currently our project is on schedule. The interim demo was successfully completed, and preparation for the final presentation is progressing well. However, robustness testing for the pipelined subsystems and web-to-RPi connection needs further focus.
Plan to Stay on Schedule:
- Conduct thorough robustness testing and debugging of the pipelined system in the upcoming week.
- Allocate dedicated time for refining the presentation and addressing any last-minute technical issues.
Upcoming Deliverables
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
For the next week, I aim to complete the following:
- Robustness Testing and Refinement
- Test the integrated pipeline to ensure stability and reliability under various conditions.
- Address any issues with subsystem communication or failure handling.
- Final Presentation Slides
- Finalize slides with results, lessons learned, and future directions.
- Full System Demo
- Ensure the entire system (accelerometer, GPS, radar, web app) works seamlessly in an integrated manner for the final demo.
- Documentation
- Prepare and submit a detailed report on system design, integration, and results.
- Visit the library for visually impaired people and conduct interview with them.
