Hardware Progress Demo

Communication between micro controller and computer was made using an UART cable. Communication between WiFly module and micro controller is still in progress.

Possible Sabotage Attempt?

Yesterday when we went to work we noticed that our locker lock was broken!!! Was this a possible sabotage attempt? Nothing seemed to be missing or broken inside thought.

Some Hardware...Finally!!!

This week the team has been working on the hardware part of our project. We bought and ordered some new equipment. We started learning how to use and program the micro controller MSP430f149. We also worked on the circuit for the LCD and were able to turn it on to make sure it works. Our goal for next week is to work hard on showing events in the lcd and also making the buttons functional. So that way we can focus on working on more micro controller programming and also working with the WiFly communication.

Meeting with Manuel Rodriguez

Today the team met with professor Manuel Rodriguez to discuss the Proposal. Professor mentioned their worries about the range of the zigbee vs. Wifly. The team decided to use WiFly instead of Xbee since it seems to have better range.
