For this week, I worked on multiple aspects of the project. First, I finalized my post-processing method of acceleration data. With our TA’s (Janet Li) help, I was able to create a way to detect direction based on my accelerometer
Team Status Report for 3/26/22
This week we shifted gears a bit while waiting for the RS-485 dummy implementation to be ready. The RS-485 Half-Duplex transmission is now fully operational between the Uno and Due and is ready to be translated for the Jetson/Due
Tomas’s Status Report for 3/26/22
Summary. As mentioned in the team status report, we had some setbacks this week regarding the integration of the system caused by some hardware issues with the communications chips. I had planned to have begun sending object data from the Jetson
Min Gun’s Status Report for 3/26/22
For this week, I looked into ways of post-processing the data acquired using the accelerometer/gyroscope breakout board. At first, I wanted to figure out if acceleration data is sufficient enough to detect motion. After research and group discussion, we decided
Harry’s Status Report for 3/26/22
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
Team Status Report for 3/19/22
Since our last status update we have fully begun with the hardware and software implementations of our project. Over break we all did a lot of research on our various subsystems to ensure that we would be able to jump
Tomas’s Status Report for 3/19/2022
Summary. I spent this week developing a first pass of our Computer Vision contact detection algorithm and the glove design. As a reminder, this algorithm is meant to create a “best guess” of which object the user may be potentially touching and/or
Min Gun’s Status Report for 3/19/22
This week was a challenge for me to work with the new accelerometer/gyroscope breakout board and the force sensors. Despite acquiring data using another breakout board two weeks ago, this new board has been difficult to establish an I2C communication.
Harry’s Status Report for 3/19/22
The past couple weeks were spent attempting to get the RS 485 connection working in a dummy system. The system consists of two Arduino Unos utilizing Max 485 chips to convert a UART TTL signal into RS 485. Presently the
Team Status Report for 2/26/2022
The bulk of this week was spent working on our design review, as we realized just how significant of an undertaking it is and realized that it would be in our significant interests to start working on it before we
