1. What did you personally accomplish this week on the project?
- This week, I confirmed that the NeoPixel part I ordered last week is on its way. Once it arrives, I plan to finalize and complete the circuit assembly.
- In the meantime, I shifted my focus to integrating the components with the Jetson, which is an essential step for the full system setup. To facilitate this, I participated in a group meeting where we worked on setting up the Jetson and coordinating its communication with other system components.
- During integration, I identified an issue with the Adafruit Feather’s connectivity. While it works smoothly on my local WiFi, it faces challenges when trying to connect to CMU’s network. This is a critical insight that will need addressing to ensure reliable operation in our intended environment.
2. Is your progress on schedule or behind?
- My progress is slightly behind schedule. I wanted to have finished my circuit and start working on streamlining the design but am still waiting for the NeoPixel to arrive.
3. What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
- Next week, I hope to have the NeoPixel part in hand and complete the circuit assembly.
- I aim to continue working on and ideally finalize the integration between the Adafruit Feather and the Jetson, addressing the WiFi connectivity issue to ensure seamless communication.
- If the circuit is completed, I will run initial tests to confirm that the system operates as expected and adjust any configurations as necessary.
