Final Preparations, Final Problems

Today was the formative formative. Meaning that there is a kind of dress-rehearsal before the actual formative assessment with an external examiner next wednesday.

A forum reply on the NUI Group forum helped with a coding issue but that is far from resolved.

A number of things have happened this week including the perspex arriving and being installed into the frame and the frame being secured to it’s feet.

The perspex screen was plastered with tracing paper and celotaped to prevent movement or ripping between the sheets The setup was tested in place and seemed to be ok however the webcam was inadequate due to reflections from the perspex

The webcam could not be hacked to only show IR as the existing filter is inside the lens itself rather than at the end of it. So a new webcam was ordered that has been confirmed to do this, when it arrives the process will restart.
