The webserver can be accessed and displays the current posture.
There has been a review with the statistics and it was found out that the numbers were extremely optimistic and unrealistic. Thus there will be a review done with a business lecturer to make the business side of things more acceptable.
The poster redesign has been completed. The QR code has been updated as the previous QR code does not work

The statistics have been reworked and the numbers are more realistic. Currently if the business were to carry out, it would barely survive. Probably due to a lack of understanding with the numbers.
The sensor issue from Day 68 was rediscovered (vertical sensor placement causes a glitch in sensing the readings) and was thought to be solved earlier. The videos at the bottom explains what occurred.
A 3D printed model that angles the bottom sensor to be not vertical is currently being designed to ensure that it will not stay vertical during any operation.
The IoT is still being worked on. The poster cannot be printed due to the statistics being inaccurate.

Angled sensor holder was printed and tested. It was effective in solving the sensor issues. Readings are more accurate.
Web server was updated to display information on the percentage of time that the user spends in each posture.
Sensitivity of the motors have to be adjusted with the now improved device.

The team finished up the report and documentation required.
The poster has bad resolution and will need to be photoshopped to improve the image quality. Currently there has been an outsource to improve the poster quality.
The peltier design execution has been started(cutting and drilling) and is currently having the adhesive being dried.

The team had problems with the peltier items, such as the item being too weak, the heat sink unable to draw away enough heat and other problems with the sealant issues. Thus there is going to have some reiterations of the peltier.
There will be no updates for the next few days.

The team presented the project to the booth for the MDP Roadshow, where the project is showcased to lecturers, judges and students.
Feedback was overall positive and they seem receptive towards the idea.
With that, the major events for this project has been completed. Submission of the report will come up soon. The team will check through the report again and again to ensure it is accurate and of highest quality.
