Week 1 Post – Haptic Glove

  1. An image or video A draft that demonstrates how we want different components such as wires, microcontrollers, 3D-material holders to be built on the glove.Based on the data read from serial to change the LED light to be on or off. This can be applied to reading data from Unity and turn the wires on or off on the glove.
  2. A Listing of accomplishments made by all group members for the previous week
    1. Figured out how to use Arduino and Lilypad to read specific data from serials
    2. Contacted the wire company and ordered the wires
    3. Bought gloves and heat resistant tape
  3. A description of problems encountered and outstanding issues
    1. Still learning about Unity and how to connect Unity with Arduino
    2. Need to learn about sewing and how to integrate those wires and microcontrollers to the glove
    3. Delayed Shipping of Flexinol Wire
  4. A plan for the next week of work
    1. The most important material — wires will arrive tomorrow. So the task for next week will be testing the wires.
    2. Connect Unity with Arduino
