• summary of 2019, see below

• goal for this semester: getting several working micro-robots

• hardware wishlist for each, see below

Minutes

• Titan Yuan BLE TX works

  • all in user guide

  • demo if you want to test BLE onSCuM chips

• eye-safe programmers, but don’t work great

  • but you need 5-10 tries, not consistent even with the same orientation

• Brian update

  • full 3D localization using lighthouse

  • some LDO setting seem to interfere with

  • adding IMU, making smaller board

• Felipe showed that you could integrate MIMSY, IMU, EKF

• we got SCuM to run from Zappy solar panels, including running electrostatic inchworm micro-motors

• 1 ksps (maybe?) from the ADC and 8 bit of resolution (maybe), simple inch-worm motor works

• we need to put all of that together

• goal for the semester: we have gripper (Daniel), tactile stimulators (Dillon), jumpers (Craig), walkers (Hani), etc

  • we should have all 4

  • taction with Eric Paulos, using inch motors to poke people, HCI teams excited

• coordinate with Titan Yuan using app “lightblue”

  • receive 15.4, send BLE

• action item: having Brian create a PR in the CI environment, and merge the code as part of our meeting 2 weeks from now

• action item: for EWSN demo, show a SCuM chip receiving a string over 15.4, and echo’ing that over BLE

• hardware wishlist
