Accomplishment: Early this week we had our proposal presentation so I spent some hours working on my delivery to ensure that I covered all the key points of our project and kept within time. We held our weekly meeting where we discussed the overall latency of our device and I proposed a plan to implement a network-based design so as to offload the processing from the RPi to a server.
Progress: I am a little behind on the research into how doable this network-based approach will be, but I did talk to a friend who has experience on similar work and believe we are capable of handling it. I plan on spending time tomorrow and Monday to flush out a solid execution plan along with system diagrams.
Projected Deliverables: By end of the week I hope to have some clarity on this new network-based design choice, along with deciding on some metrics such as how frequently the RPi will send packages to the server. I also will look up on how servers can be hosted over the cloud, as well as brainstorm the design of API endpoints to facilitate the communication.
