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, […]
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 […]
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 […]
An image or video (this could either be photograph of the current state of your work, a sketch, a diagram, etc)I This is the drawn city skyline for the back of the dress A Listing of accomplishments made by all group members for the previous we Designed the top of […]
Progress Made this past week: Lining material cut coding successfully done bellows patch pocket concept researched ideas on where to integrate the electronics What needs accomplishing: Need to find a sewable material to conduct light through the cuff bands (plastic cording essentially) find a better dedicated power source for my […]
The leggings are done and the shirt is almost finished! I think I’ve solved the mystery of “where to put the zipper/how to connect the shirt to the pants/which shirt should use the hood.” I’m going to attach the hood to the black crop top, put an invisible zipper in […]
Last week I adjusted the testing code for the last time and the test on the testing fabric went well. It showed that when put the fabric( nightdress) vertically, the output of Z direction is around 500. When shaking the fabric, the out put of Z direction is between 400-600. […]
For this week, I has been working on sewing my skirt but it seems difficult for me as I’m very new to design. I was working on using pattern to cut out the fabric for my skirt but it is still very difficult for me.. Besides, i just try to […]
Accomplishments: This past week Kevin and I finished modifying the code so that it accurately reacts to slow and fast movement. Our code takes the average magnitude of the x, y and z direction so a reading of around 1 (0.95-1.05) is equivalent to no movement. Slow movement gives values […]
These additional items include: What percentage would you estimated that you have completed for your project? 20%. I have 99% of my material and I have started the overall construction process for the top and the code for the lights How much has the project changed since your initial pitch? I […]
