Luc Prisby’s Work Log

1/30/24 Meeting

• Waiting on hardware to ship in
• Discuss software to use when programming the pi
• Learn audacity, uses Nyquist, an audio based programming language. There is a scripting plugin to use python, any time delay?
• Open CV writes in python. Use for the pi camera. Has future potential when integrating a User Interface.
• Compute audio processing and image processing in parallel?

2/6/24 Meeting

• Looked through redlines of IPS document and weighed the functional requirement tasks.
• Removed z axis sound origin detection from our functional requirements for this semester.
• Began to upload the pi software to our pi board.
• Developed contingency plans in the instance our other parts don’t arrive soon.

3/5/24 Meeting

• Parts came in the mail.
• Ordered an Analog to digital converter and an I2C bus.
• Will need to create PCB’s for the mems microphones. Using KiCad do complete this.

3/12/24 Meeting

• Created PCB’s for out mems microphones and had them printed out.
• Discussed further steps on integrating camera and other software updates.

3/19/24 Meeting

• Met in the PLEXUS lab to solder mems mic to circuit board.
• Have been working on integrating a voltage regulator onto a circuit board with the I2C and ADC.
• Will also have to integrate opamps onto circuit board to increase gain of mems mic signal.

3/26/2024 Meeting

• designed a main circuit board to cad and print, the main board will include a 5v regulator, ADC and I2C.
• Will need to create new boards for mems mics that include a gain opamp, a 2v regulator, a bandpass filter, and the mems mics.
• went through and ordered the necessary parts to produce this product.

4/5/2024 Meeting

• Spent all day in the plexus lab soldering the new board for our glasses.
• Up next is data collection and analysis of the new board.
• need to integrate software with the boards after collection of data.
