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 and last week, I focused on multiple aspects of the project, including preparing videos for GPS usage, preparing the interim project demo, adjusting the audio port, and developing the final presentation slides. Since our GPS system only functions outdoors, we recorded demonstration videos in front of Hamerschlag Hall to showcase its capabilities for the interim demo. I also worked on the interim project slides and demo presentation to show our technical progress, task distribution, and system integration. To address sound playback issues, I adjusted the audio port to ensure it functioned correctly when we tested them by ourselves. However, during the demo, the port behavior was still inconsistent, appearing to change randomly, and sometimes the audio did not align with the original file. After the demo, we re-adjusted the audio configuration to improve reliability. Additionally, I dedicated time for the final presentation slides to show our progress and outcomes.
Schedule
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 currently on schedule with the project. All planned tasks for this phase have been completed on time, and I am progressing as expected. If any unforeseen delays arise, I will prioritize major tasks and collaborate with teammates to ensure we stay on track.
Upcoming Deliverables
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
- Resolve the issue of audio playback misalignment with the original files.
- Integrate all components into the vest.
- Interview visually impaired people to gather feedback and suggestions for improving our product.
