I have sewn in the resistor and and connected it to the soft conductive fabric button. I have tested the coding again to make sure the vibrating motor works. I now I have to add the capacitive sensor code into my original working code to allow for the pressure button […]
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 […]
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 […]
This week I worked on sewing the soft button onto the outside of the velcro wrap around the wrist band to make it easier to access starting the timer over again. I also have been working on poster layouts and ideas. I am currently using the free website Canva.com to […]
This week I continued to work on coding and testing of the heart rate sensor. The software is what I have thought and continue to think is the most difficult and time consuming part of this process, so I’m not too concerned. I am, however, having issues getting consistent readings […]
Accomplishments: I re-soldered the wires to the accelerometer. I connected the accelerometer and got reasonable values. I redesigned the rash guard to hide the accelerometer with 3D printed pieces that I made. I bought a rash guard instead of using the wetsuit that I bought. I decided to do this because […]
This week I worked on writing code that would be able to 1. Find the start and stop of a rep and 2. Find the peak and average velocity from that rep. From talking to Kevin and WeightUp solutions, I decided the Olympic lifts would actually be the easiest to […]
I have figured out that there is a way to create a pressure sensor button without layering conductive thread with velostat. Instead there is a different program that I can download in order to create a pressure sensor reaction with just one layer of conductive fabric sewn in to the […]
This most recent week of class, I was able to finally get to implementing code and testing the heart rate sensor now that it finally came in later in the previous week. Once I got the code all set to go, I used alligator clips to get the connections set […]
