Finished Checkpoints:
- Insertion of latitude and longitude from ZigSim to Processing for GPS
- Retrieval of UV Index value from Weather API
- Sending UVI value to Arduino to adjust Tightness Level
- First test of Tightening mechanism with 16 levels of Tightness
To be completed:
- Extension of servo arm
- Construction of belt for Tightening loop
- Mount device on to hat
To explore:
- Data.gov.sg hourly Ultra-violet Index (UVI) API
- https://data.gov.sg/dataset/ultraviolet-index-uvi
Update: 11am, 29 Sept 2020
- Using year(), month(), day(), hour(), min(), second()
- Data.gov.sg UVI API
- Updated every hour between 7 AM and 7 PM everyday
- The UV index value is averaged over the preceding hour
- Parameters: YYYY-MM-DD, HH:mm:ss
Post-consult: 1.45pm, 29 Sept 2020
- consider 4-5 levels of “tightness” rather than 0-16 for more dramatic changes
- consider aligning with UV index levels of warning
- a strap around the neck or wrist rather than skull for better sensing
- piezo buzzer vibrator as extra feedback
- pulsing feedback
