    v27 v28  
    2222Goals for next week:
    23231. Establish the client-server connection with our laptop and the Servo Steer car.
    24    * Begin developing client-side controls
     24    * Begin developing client-side controls
    2525
    26262. Set up mecanum hardware and electronics (eventually focus on maneuverability and efficiency)
    … …  
    3232* Fully assembled hardware and electronics for the mecanum robot. We got the mecanum car to drive in all directions including strafing and moving diagonally.
    3333* Established the client-server connection with our laptop and the Servo Steer car.
    34   * Created server (running on Raspberry Pi) using Python to listen for UDP packets and interact with GPIO to control motors.
    35   * Created a client (Using electron and react.js) to make the user interface that sends packets with UDP to the server
     34   * Created server (running on Raspberry Pi) using Python to listen for UDP packets and interact with GPIO to control motors.
     35   * Created a client (Using electron and react.js) to make the user interface that sends packets with UDP to the server
    3636* Utilized ZeroTier to set up a VPN that creates a VLAN which, hypothetically, can allow us to connect to the server from anywhere in the internet.
    3737* Learned bash scripting and Linux to run server code and expedite development
    … …  
    4747Goals for next week:
    48481. Further develop the client/server software.
    49    * Begin developing client-side controls for steering and implementing virtual joysticks
    50    * Begin sending camera frames to the client side
     49    * Begin developing client-side controls for steering (potentially implementing virtual joysticks)
     50    * Begin sending camera frames to the client side
    5151
    52522. Adapt the client and server code from the servo steer car for use with the mecanum car.
    … …  
    56564. Add features that improve robot functionality and aid the user(object detection, sensor integration, emergency stop)

     58=== Week 3
    5959
     60* Adapted the client and server code from the servo steer car for use with the mecanum car.
     61* Created a client-side web application using ......
     62   * Added full movement controls for the mecanum car.
     63   * Experimented with various cameras and tested different pre-processing and post-processing algorithms in OpenCV to evaluate their impact on latency.
     64   * Integrated camera feed from the vehicles in the client's web application.
     65* Configured ZeroTier to establish a connection between the client and server over multiple networks/hotspots.
     66   * This connection was sometimes inconsistent between multiple networks.
     67* Created a base design for the simplified user interface

     70Challenges/Issues:
     71  - We experienced issues with certain cameras connecting to the Rasberry Pi.
     72  - We faced inconsistencies with ZeroTier, likely due to configuration issues.
