This week was mainly focused on our proposal presentation, finalizing our respective roles within the project, and getting a start on the computer vision component of our project. Here is a bulleted list of the taste completed:
- Created the proposal presentation
- Conducted research on existing facial recognition models to understand the limits of our project in terms of latency and accuracy
- Finalized our hardware usage and found latency bounds on our wired and wireless connections
- Set an accuracy goal of 70-75%
- Gave the presentation to the class and updated our goals based on responses from the professors, TAs, and classmates
- Finalized the schedule and division of work for the project
- Attended 3 team meetings to work together with teammates
- Attended proposal meetings for other teams and gave feedback
- Found 2 existing datasets that we might use for our machine-learning model
- Found an existing facial recognition model that we may base ours of
I’d say that we are on schedule.
Goals for next week:
- Submit orders for our hardware components to ensure they come on time
- Finalize which facial recognition models we will use and what additions, modifications, and integrations will be used to make it our own
- Get more feedback from our peers and make reasonable changes if any problems are noticed
