Weekly Report 7 (
I had hoped to get a lot done
over the break but a few things came up that forced me to be out of town. I got back home on Tuesday and have only had
yesterday and today to work on my robot.
I did bring my laptop with me on my trip and attempted to write some
code but did not really have any time (or since there wasn’t any internet the
means) to get deep into it. I did order
another programmer to try and fix the problem I was having with my first one but
I have not been able to get it to work.
I will bring it to lab today and try to get it to work. I have tested many of my systems without the
use of the microcontroller, including the voice recognition system that was
waiting for me when I got home, and everything seems like it should work
correctly when I can finally program test code.
There was a flaw in my original platform design that made it difficult
to deal cards so I have disassembled a lot of my platform in order to fix the
problem. I feel I’m a little behind
because I didn’t get to do much over the break but I am ready to spend a lot of
time over the next week to catch up.
