We are continuing to work on developing our prototype. Emma is developing our final version of the headband, using Thom’s head as a size model and working to make a design that would be fairly easily adapted to any size head. However, for the purposes of this project, we are only planning to make the headband in one size. It will contain a pocket for the IMU, which Emma plans to make relatively snug to keep the IMU from shifting as much as it may in our current version of the headband, which is much less precise of a prototype (the pocket is bigger and looser, and the headband is not adjustable.
Katelyn is continuing to work with the Raspberry Pi, and hopes to have the audio/haptics working based on input from the Arduino Serial monitor by early next week. This may or may not be achievable, but that mostly depends on how smoothly getting input from the Serial monitor goes. Once she has achieved these tasks, she plans to switch to helping Thom get the IMU measurement/calibration improved, so that the IMU can be hooked up with the Raspberry Pi to both measure head position and give feedback. Her other upcoming task will involve modifying the Python program on the Pi to save data over time in a format that would be helpful for the clinician. Thom is continuing to try to get the Arduino to have a calibration component to its program, activated by a button press, in order to normalize the IMU values. Comments are closed.
