Week Eight

Friday, May 23, 2014 11:03 AM During the week prior to our meeting we realized we had the wrong cable. One of the ports on the cables that was sent with the wireless transmitter and receiver pair was not accommodated for video. Without testing the video component of the pair it was indeterminable if they worked. Once the right cable was found we completed testing the transmitter receiver to find that they do work. This specific testing involved a Play Station Three and television monitor to display the signals.  Another...

Week Seven

Friday, May 16, 2014 11:03 AM In this weeks meeting, we discussed what the best options are for our final deliverable.  Professor Taskin and Scott talked about how it would be a good idea to use the wireless transmitter and receiver that we have to demonstrate transmitting a picture or video while describing the process behind it.  This will help us by illustrating our understanding of the research we have performed by putting it towards a physical device and it's processes.  This demonstration will go hand in hand with a poster...

Week Six

Friday, May 9, 2014 10:34 AM After speaking with Scott on Friday, we learned that it would be extremely difficult and impractical to try to connect an Arduino as a substitute for a P.B.C. board to the transmitter and receiver we have, and so yet again we are unsure what our final deliverable should be.  However, Scott suggested we make a poster,  much like what Professor Taskin suggested a few weeks ago, of what elements we would...

Week Five

Friday, May 2, 2014 11:09 AM This week was heavy into reading technical documents on converting an HDMI signal to readable data via PCB board.  Examples of block diagrams demonstrating just that were found on Texas Instruments' website, and are displayed below. Layout of TMDS Lines Routed on the Bottom Layer Layout of non-TMDS Lines  In addition, we looked at the necessary HDMI male plugs needed to actually add the HDMI...

Week Four

Friday, April 25, 2014 11:10 AM This week we made a flowchart of the behavioral logic of the transmitter and receiver we purchased in week two so that we could better understand how a transceiver pair works to successfully go through with a task such as sending a video/audio signal over wireless. Receiver Behavioral Flowchart             Transmitter Behavioral Flowchart  In addition, we also...
