EoS Project By Konnor Beaulier
Progress: All of my parts arrived! The best part is that the LRF module, Arduino, and OLED display are much smaller than I anticipated, however after drawing up some rough placement plans I can see that the width may in fact still be an issue. If width does prove to be a problem I can then look at the fallback plan of splitting the device on both sides of the glasses and figuring out what I need to use to connect the two sides.
LRF module
Arduino micro pro
OLED display
Issues: The lenses I have are excellent at reflecting light so I think they’ll work well for the OLED display, however my only concern is looking through them is a real eyesore. This may not prove to be a problem depending on how small I can make the display, but if it is too big and is a real nuisance then I may need to find a different lens to use.
Next: I don’t have wires small enough to test my electronic components so I’ll be looking to either get some in class or pay a visit to the engineering building to try and get some if possible. Once I get those I’ll be able to hook up the Arduino and the OLED display to get that displaying properly and will even be able to work on getting the readings from the LRF module which is great.
