Grace’s Status Report 2/10/2024

This week, I practiced and delivered the proposal presentation for our team. Following the presentation, I considered the feedback received and discussed with my team to assess the adjustments needed to be made for our project. Based on the feedback, we decided to focus our devices on getting the room scan and generating a digital model of a room, rather than pursuing the robotics aspect and furniture classification. By mounting a LiDAR sensor in a stationary position within the room, we can obtain a 2D scan and map the room. I believe that the RPLiDAR A1 sensor would be a good candidate for room scanning, based on its ability to rotate 360 degrees and supported software packages. Next week, I will begin planning for the codebase to process the sensor data.
