Accomplished Tasks
This week I was in charge of presenting our first capstone presentation. I spent part of the week working on the presentation slides as well as prepping for the presentation itself. After receiving feedback from the professor about finding a drone with a builtin API, I researched some contacts from the robotics department in order to get some advice on available drones to program as well as if they have leftover inventory of them. In addition, I stuck to my gantt chart and have begun creating the Django website base for our capstone and have looked into how to incorporate FastAPI and GeoDjango to get a live video feed for our drone footage and create a GPS interface.
Progress
I am still on schedule, I hope to speed up the process of figuring out a GPS interface since I’m still considering whether to use GeoDjango or Geolocation API for the feature.
Next Week’s Deliverables
I need to be able to test and complete the live stream ability from a URL as well as find an object to test for the GPS tracking interface in case the drone doesn’t come in time.
