CCS Problems

Two members of the team continue to have problems with CCS, we hope to fix this problem and run the demo by the next week.

Our team member Trevor has made progress with his work and has successfully communicated between the launchpad and sensors

CCS Work

Currently the team is working with CCS and are trying to run simple demos.
Our team member Trevor was able to properly run his first demo.

Wednesday, February 4, 2015

-risk analysis
-weekly reports


-research communication on parts
-communication protocol involved? or just analog
-specs, port to launchpad, dividing work


Trevor- coding (making the accelerometer work with the launchpad)
Twinkle- communication with the outside world from the launchpad
Marvin- communication between accelerometer and nfc patch with the launchpad

TM4C129
-Launchpad(connected with launchpad)
-wifi compatible
-Sensor hub boosterpack (accelerometer)
-CC3100 Booster Pack
-wifi

EK-TM4C1294XL

BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy)
-current (voltage amount)
-range

NFC Patch

find batter sized necessary by looking at the length of field
-sensor patch
-no battery
-nfc on phone
-hydration: patch NFC
-hacking (security)
-impact (accelerometer)  

Requirements
range battery life difficulty how to read the data
how far durability how often it reads data
Cellphone vs. watch vs. computer

Accelerometer vs. injury patch
real time hydration instant heart rate
impact temp. no battery

To Do Tasks/Goals for next meeting
-scope -talk to trey -app or phone? -graph -Cell v. Watch v. Comp.
