Minutes

• @Jinyue Zhu Update the Gripper project

  • Go over the ADC module and make it work

  • Control the Gripper based on the wireless packet sent to SCuM

• For the accelerator project

  • Integrate external IMU chip with SCuM

• For the hexapod Robot Project

  • Control the robot legs

  • can ask Brian Kilberg who uses IMU and two lighthouse to localize where the SCuM is.

• Aiming to have functioning control program and proper documents

• Kristofer PISTER Austin Patel Tengfei Chang Try to find a good path for people to use SCuM

  • The ideal solution is to have one OpenMote and one SCuM and run continuously calibration over OpenWSN stack.

• Tengfei Chang Update on Drone antenna carrying test

  • showing where he has been with nice pictures and videos from Greece

  • show a drone can carry the TI antenna array with three sticks joints together.

• Update directional antenna tests result

  • The experiment is done with two Nordic DK (nRF52840), one TX one RX with 100 meters distance in between.

  • The RX is connected with the directional antenna

  • The result shows, The RX can receive packets all the time except pointing to the sky.

  • The RSSI needs to be read to determine the a better direction accuracy, a buzzer may need to beep when a packet is received.

• Austin Patel some range testing needs to do before shipping to Paris

• Thomas Watteyne expecting to receive the SCuM Slayer boards in two days.

  • There are three boards manufactured

    • one is received (confirmed by Austin Patel)

  • reserve 6 SCuMs for the hornet project

  • We could put SCuM3B on the scum for training.

• Jackson Paddock clean up the Cadence documents?
