Guava - Week of January 30, 2017
Attended: Tryston, Kaeo, Michael
Updates
- Started the proposal slides
- Doing research on the differences and similarities between the new chip and the old chip
- Expand on the successes and try to correct the “missteps” of the Dragon Fruit
- Chose Dragon Fruit because of the 5V
- Thinking of that subgoal of demand response
- Thinking of alternate uses of Guava such as an indoor sensor as well.
- Maybe try to let it be used both inside and outside.
- Created Gantt Chart for the semester
"Projected" Goals
- Deployment might not be the end goal
- Maybe a proof of concept to test the capabilities of the processor with its functionality
Design Choices of The Week
- Initially going with a 5V volts option over the 3V because of the use of the breakout sensors/parts
- Research more of the pros and cons of using the 3V and 5V
- Might incorporate a 3V and 5V design that works in tandem with each other
- Implementation of different types of sensors not necessarily weather sensors, but something else
- Going to keep the charging chip how it is. (SMD parts including breaking the big cap into smaller caps in parallel)
Issues
- Need Gantt Chart of Schedule before next week Thursday(RESOLVED)
- Need to figure out the roles/duties - Team Lead Michael will show us the way
- Figure out end goals for this project - TLM will show us the way for this as well
Reminders
- Proposal Presentations on Saturday, February 11th @ 9:00 AM @ iLab
