Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
With our hardware taken to Taiwan for a demonstration to the navy, most of this week was spent working on code and development of the UI/UX. CAD has been mostly completed for the final revision of the hardware, and the button layout and menu items have been established. The team has successfully implemented the UI on a 128x64 OLED display, and have also successfully utilized buttons to navigate the menu, mitigating the issue of button bounce. After receiving the hardware back, the team completed further testing and validation on the performance of the current source and the voltage resolution. The ADC performs incredibly well, and everything else is functioning as expected and designed.
