Accomplishments: This week Kevin and I soldered the electret microphone to the Qduino Mini microcontroller (shown in the picture). We have been researching possible coding techniques to use in order to make the LEDs blink to the beat of the music. We experimented with the fast Fourier transform or FFT, […]
This week I finished soldering the accelerometer and the neopixel strip to the lilypad. I have been working on coding. I have been recording numbers from the accelerometer and have tried out different code with the neopixels. I have been working on combining the accelerometer and neopixel code and have […]
These additional items include: What percentage would you estimated that you have completed for your project? I now have about 40% of my project done, all that’s left is sewing and electronics How much has the project changed since your initial pitch? My design has changed slightly due to printing […]
I don’t really have any new images as this week I still continued to work out the final kinks in my code. I am pretty sure I’m about ready to go with the software portion of this project, so this week I intend to progress solely onto the implementation into […]
Percentage: 50%-60% Accomplishment: This week I have finished all the programming and have had all my electronic elements including the 20 LEDs sewn on my testing fabric to have a simple demo for my final nightdress. Difficulties: The code did’t go very well which means I may need some adjustment […]
Well, I think I arrived at a decent solution to the planar embedding: The issue is really those two pads in the middle. They provide a power and ground signal for the circuit. This graph is totally flat, and needs no jumpers, but I have to connect to those pads […]
Progress made this past week: lining material sewn together facings added to jacket test fitting (slim) coding for light up pocket function copied and applied to a second set of pins on the lilypad arduino pockets patterned What needs accomplishing: wiring diagram pattern cuffs (no longer using a clear cording […]
1. 2. A Listing of accomplishments made by all group members for the previous week Sam: Did a lot of work on the app. He got the drop down menu of the app to work as well as the populating of the words that are programmed in. Sam also accomplished that […]
Accomplishments: I was able to work on the 555 chip circuit for controlling the servo motor following the tutorial on makezine.com/projects/projects-in-motion-control-three-types-of-motors-with-555-timers/ . It was a bit challenging to find all the parts, I ended up going to several locations in town and making two different orders online. After completing some […]
