Michelle’s Status Report for 10/5

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 worked on version 3 of the CAD model for the glasses, including making sketches of the extending/flexible transparent LCD holder.
  • I also worked on bringing up the transparent LCD using Thonny and the Raspberry Pi Pico W.
  • I also helped out with the design presentation earlier in the week.

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

  • I hope to start integrating the components with Alena tomorrow (10/6). From there, we will determine what the best course of action is.
  • Because I am second-guessing the need for a PCB, our progress is either on time or slightly ahead. The PCB may just add additional weight and not serve much purpose if we find an alternative way to mount our components and connect them.

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

  • By next week, I hope to have all components integrated and tested on one Raspberry Pi Pico W.
  • I also hope to have at least one version of the glasses printed to judge weight and comfort.
  • I will be working with Kayla + Alena to see what the best method of communicating with the Raspberry Pi Pico W is (sending information to the web app) throughout the week.
  • Finally, I will work on experimenting with the battery and power SHIM to see if the battery life meets our expectations.

Kayla’s Status Report for 10/5

This week I began implementing the web scraping and continued researching and planning the web app implementation as a whole. The progress is on schedule so far, and next week I will work more on the design report and continue the web scraping implementation.

Here is the repo for the web app code
