What did you do this week?
I worked on the code for the proximity sensor and pulse sensor.
Describe the problems you encountered.
I had planned to use the lilypad simple for both sensors however I found that the lilypad and pulse sensor would not work together given the code I was using. I therefore will need to incorporate the arduino uno into the jacket design.
Also I was planning to get the grommet to frame the proximity sensor this evening but due to the road conditions (and the fact that I hate driving in the snow) I will need to get it tomorrow.
Describe the successes you had.
The proximity sensor and string LEDs work! See video:
When an object comes into the field of the sensor, the string LEDs blink.
Are you on schedule?
I hope so.
What do you plan to do next week?
Finish the jacket!
