 ====== Week 12 - April 12, 2017 ====== ====== Week 12 - April 12, 2017 ======
 ===== Updates ===== ===== Updates =====
-  * Parts order came in+  * Submitted 496 Abstract to the EE assistant for use in the 496 pamplet/​program thing. 
 +    * Objective, Abstract, and Team Members 
 + 
 +==== Parts Order ====  
 +Parts order came in - yay. Time to test. 
     * BME280     * BME280
-    ​* ATmega1284P - DIP and TQFN +      * Using the Adafruit testing code from their github with an Arduino Uno to verify how/that it works 
-  * +        * Going to hook it up using I2C first then SPI 
 +        * I2C wiring - Using an Arduino Uno and the test code compiles and works. 
 +          * Reads Temperature/​Pressure/​Altitude/​Humidity 
 +        * SPI wiring - Using the same Arduino Uno the test code compiles and works 
 +      * Dylan'​s code is to use with the whole board hooked up in the firmware of the whole box like the driver for the sensor to use in whole system 
 +    ​* ATmega1284P - DIP and TQFN packages. 
 +      * Need to breadboard a DIP one to start testing its functionalities and differences between the 328P 
 + 
 +==== Design/​Research ==== 
 +  * Rain sensor 
 +    * We have a solar sensor and wind sensor. Why not rain sensor? 
 +    * Look into creating a DIY version of rain sensor. 
 +      * Leads that short when there is a conductor (rain water) present. 
 +      * Helpful link maybe - http://​www.instructables.com/​id/​Arduino-Modules-Rain-Sensor/​\ 
 + 
 +===== Reminders ===== 
 +  * SCEL's participation in CoE's Open House is canceled due to a "full program"​  
 +  * April 29th, Final Presentation 
 +  * Final Paper - 4000 words - should start breaking up the paper into sections for people to write about now 
 +    * Topics
