Welcome to the team Electric Eye blog post for the week of 2/21! This week our team has been pushing towards the goals we set for our upcoming QRB event next week. Its been an extremely productive week for us, and we feel great about the position we’re in for our second QRB event.
Work Completed
With QRB2 next week, this week was about finalizing the work to be done to meet our goals. Some of our goals for this QRB were mentioned in our blog post from 2 weeks ago, which included: Multi camera functionality from the Hardware team, live detection of key hazards from the AI team, and general page navigation from our UI team. Since then, the team has managed to hit our goals and even go beyond some of them. We wanted to use this week to ensure that the team was on the right track and that we were as prepared as can be for QRB2. Here are some things we got done this week:
- Hardware: New cameras are running on the Pi and can be accessed via the UI!
- AI/ML: Continued training on the UF HiPerGator computer and attained performance metric for each class of objects the AI will detect (which will be used to fine tune our model’s performance).
- UI/UX: Continued development on page navigation and made great progress into data navigation.
- General: Hashed out our TPMs and other testing metrics ahead of our upcoming QBR2.
The next major step for our team to begin testing! While not all aspects of the device will be tested in the same way, a primary goal for the rest of our semester is to ensure that we have plenty of testing data to improve our device. There is still plenty of development to do, so we will continue to update on the progress we are making!
QRB2 Prep is underway at team Electric Eye. We want to ensure the event is as impactful for us as possible, so we’ve made some changes to how we are presenting. Hopefully, this will garner the best feedback we can get, and there will be more to share in next week’s blog post. Thank you for reading this week’s post from team Electric Eye!
