Accomplishment: This week I researched using a Jetson vs RPi to help us decide which board to use. I also researched using the Jetson’s GPIO pins, looked through NANO pinout documentation, and found libraries for configuring the Jetson NANO’s pins. I also looked into existing projects that integrate a Jetson with sensor peripherals to get guidance on designing the custom PCB. I looked into specific devices for our audio output and vibration motor and settled on the CM108 board for audio conversion. Additionally, I called LAMP to get project feedback from visually impaired people and set up a meeting for this Tuesday 2/20.
Progress: My progress is on track this week since I set up the meeting with LAMP and looked into hardware components. My schedule for next week has changed slightly to accommodate circuit design, but I don’t expect this to throw off my overall progress on component integration since the hardware components we ordered have not arrived yet.
Projected Deliverables: This week I will be giving our design presentation as well as meeting with the LAMP advisory group on Tuesday, so I will work on preparing the slides and presentations. I will also begin designing and testing the voltage conversion circuit in preparation for our hardware components arriving. I also plan on placing an order for the audio converter and vibration motors we settled on.
