  • Meeting with Feher

-February 20, 2018 (Kelvin Xie, 2 hours 30 minutes)

  • Work on presentation
  • Updated Raspberry Pi to Pixel

-February 20, 2018 (Ahmed Hassan, 30 minutes)

-February 21, 2018 (Kelvin Xie, 4 hours)

  • Continued work on VNC connection

    • VNC server automatically opens on startup
    • Full remote access achieved. As a test, this log update was done through the Raspberry Pi from my iPad
  • Began learning the necessary programming to control the servo
  • Began research/plan for building the servo-pi connection

-February 23, 2018 (Ahmed Hassan, 1.5 hours)

  • Set up AWS Serer
    • Already had PyCharm and Python installed and loaded up laptop

-February 24, 2018 (Kelvin Xie, 3 hours)

  • Learned how to make proper connections between Raspberry Pi and Servo
    • Spliced USB cable and put together wiring
  • Began learning how to control servo through Raspberry Pi
    • Achieved basic movement control of servo
      • Next step will be to learn and implement precise control of servo movement
  • Began learning more specific python commands to control the servo more precisely
    • Challenges arisen
      • I can't seem to get the code to properly send the necessary signals. Since the Pi uses pulse width modulation, I am having difficulty figuring out timing to make the movements precise

-February 26th, 2018 (Graham Webb, 2 hours)

  • Hello World project

-Goals for Next Week: (Completed)

  • AWS Server being functional
