Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
Order placed for the ultrasonic sensor from Baumer ($450)
Infrared sensor test being analyzed (flat surface & glossy paper)
Research on rotary motor encoders
Accomplishments from Previous Week
Search to order the needed ultrasonic sensor
Phone calls to Baumer and other third parties to collect data about sensors
Understanding of IR and ultrasonic sensors as well as the collimator
Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.
Arrival of shipment on Monday
Begin testing the new ultrasonic sensor starting on Monday
New set up and mount to do further experiment
Sponsor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
"IOL Master": Device that is used to find the length of eye (wavelength of laser?)
Biometry: www.doctor-hill.com
Sensor options: order Ebay $150 first for testing
How would different eyes reflect? Refleting intensity varies?
Handles and mounts
Next meeting on Wednesday at 5pm
Instructor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Comments on the Design Proposal Presentation
Move the profile view of the "distance to be measured" picture to the beginning for better understanding of project
Initial Risk Reduction: Are we sure that an optical light source can be used? How was this concluded?
Good figures and tables
Plan B: Nice graphics
Learn more about the physics of collimator
