Machine Week

My Contribution

In the beginning we all convened in the architecture lounge and tried to realize how to make this crazy idea work. I was assigned into eventually 3 teams: code, integration, and documentation.

XD was leading the coding team and we discussed the alternatives for a camera to help calibrate the grabber. We ended up eventually with a different solution, but up until then I looked into streaming data from the Xiao ESP32-S3 Sense camera, connecting it to WiFi, and looking into its inherent image processing tools.

Then we worked on the integration, Janna and Sergio took the lead and I helped understand what components we're going to use + did some NASA soldering for extending the wires of the elctromagnet, that was fun..

Finally I joined Nate and Yutian in making us a cool little website, relying on an html5 template. You can check it out here!
