Both the FSR and the Accelerometer are now functional on the Arduino, with both outputting values simultaneously. An IO system was set up so that the user can control the start and stop of the output, with the values resetting after each run. The hardware components were redrawn on Autodesk Inventor because there were errors with slicing the previous designs. We have also begun making final materials choices for the device.
Work Planned for Next Week:
We are still waiting for the bluetooth module to arrive in the mail, but when it arrives the bluetooth will be implemented into the system. In addition, the velocity value still needs to be calculated from the accelerometer data.
The hardware components are now ready to be 3D printed on Tuesday for our most updated design. Any adjustments that will be needed can be made after we test the printed prototypes.
Anything needed from Client or TA before work can progress:
Dr. Engsberg, what was the name of the metal piece that you thought was good for the strap design again?
