Objective for the week (2/24/2021 - 3/3/2021):
The objective for the week is to complete as much as we can to show our progress for the presentation on March 3rd. Our goal is to develop a docking mechanism that will position the bogie in a specific spot for charging. The team will gather the necessary items to create the docking mechanism.
Individual tasks:
Pedro Serenini:
Research and develop designs for the charging station.
Gather the necessary items to create the charging station.
Assist integrating the devices.
Yit Voon Yap (Nick):
Research and develop designs for the charging station.
Gather the necessary items to create the charging station.
Assist integrating the devices.
Phuc Tran:
Develop a dashboard/control panel for the charging station.
Assist integrating the devices.
Use SolidWorks to demonstrate/create the docking mechanism.
Jacob Villanueva:
Edit the gantt chart.
Prepare slides for presentation.
Individual progress:
Phuc Tran:
Met at the design center.
Used the ESP 32 and Ultrasonic sensor to get distance reading.
Successfully connected the ESP 32 to the MQTT server.
Used Node-RED to create a dashboard that can successfully connect to the MQTT server to display gauge reading of distance.
Yit Voon Yap (Nick) and Pedro Serenini:
Met at the design center.
Utilized the ESP 32, linear actuator, ultrasonic sensor, and switch to create the docking mechanism.
Jacob Villanueva:
Continuing to work with Node-RED, researching GUI standards.
Updating block diagram to include charging station components.
