Harry’s Status Reports

This week I focused on finishing up the integration, validating that the serial protocol works, working on latency testing, and working on the final presentation. I started by fixing the data parsing issue I’d had with the Jetson <-> Due

This week was spent finishing up the Integration phase and preparing for the final assembly. I spent most of the week working on the three-way communication protocol. I started by upping the baud rate for the Micro <-> Due pipeline

This week was primarily focused on wrapping up the Serial communication between the project subsystems and starting serious work on the Max Soft Synth. We achieved successful rotational data capture and were able to translate that data into appropriate MIDI

This week I helped with the assembly of the glove and established a serial connection between the Jetson and the Due. For the assembly I worked with Tomas to design the CAD models for our 3d-printed ArUco markers. For the

This week I finally managed to get board-to-board communication working! There were a lot of issues along the way that delayed this progress, but as of 3/26 the dummy half-duplex system is fully working and ready to be migrated to

This week I primarily worked on the design report. This was a very involved task, as I came to the conclusion that I need to have effective backups planned for I2C potentially not working. I did not realize how small

This week I focused on doing research to prepare for the arrival of the Due and getting the MIDI implementation working at a base level. In my research on MIDI libraries for Arduino I discovered the Control Surface library, a

This week I researched the hardware necessary for the MIDI Out and Video Out portions of our design as well as approaches for how to handle turning an Arduino into a MIDI device. I settled on using the Arduino Due
