- What did you do this week?
We worked on the accelerometer, but we failed to understand what was the problem, the Bluetooth module and the smartphone app.
- Describe the problems you encountered
I think the wiring in the accelerometer must have fried the circuit. The readings we are getting are very inconsistent and they do not make sense. I am afraid we are going to be behind schedule because of it, but hopefully we can work on other parts of the prototype while we wait for the new accelerometer.
- Describe the successes you had
We found out how to connect the bluetooth module to the board and I began the testing with it. Victor worked heavily on the app and the functions Login, List Contact and Add Contact are working properly and he made sure they are connected with firebase as a backend framework
- Are you on schedule?
It depends if the accelerometer is really fried or not. If it is we are will be delayed, but we can work on the app while we wait for the new piece and if it is not then we are on schedule.
- What do you plan to do next week?
Probably order again a new accelerometer, sew the the bluetooth module after finishing the tests and send emails via bluetooh with the smartphone.
