Progress Report

I have caught up with tutorials online and watched all of Emotiv's available online resources. I finished the patent project. I had some problems with this, as applications themselves are difficult to patent, but I found some very solid patents. We also have a confirmation for the headset, and it will be coming in on Friday, December 4th. This allows me to set very clear goals for this week. I want to be able to test the headset with Emotiv's pre existing app, and also see how it connects with some sample code. I can create a document compiling the setup information and the way to connect so that my time in class will be easier. In conclusion, this week with be a lot of planning and testing.

Patent Project

I am posting the patent project perused by myself. The methods and hardware that I found gave me a good grasp on what is already out there, and how I can possibly improve it. It can be found through this link:

Progress Report

I have a lot of news in terms of the headset and what I am doing now. Firstly, Mr. Lin received a response from the company regarding the shipping of the headset. It should be in the next couple of weeks, and that is very exciting. Because of this, I have;

• Downloaded the app that has already been made
• Watched the videos online by Emotiv
• Looked through the Lynda.com tutorials for refreshing my app development skills
• Begun a new gantt chart to help plan around the headset shipment
• Found 9 patents so far for the patent project

One problem is that I did not finish a lot of the goals that I set for myself because of other classes and commitments. To fix this I know that I have to do two things;

• Be more realistic with my goals
• Consider the influence of my schoolwork

This will not limit the product that I am making, or hurt the project at all. It will simply help my planning skills to keep these ideas in mind as I write these reports.

My plan now is:

• Finish the Gantt Chart
• Finish the patent project
• Do some more work on the app, hopefully have a prototype soon (this goal may be set forward a little longer)

I know what I have to do, and now I know that I have far to go. If I want to succeed, I have to be more serious about my work and focus on my set deadlines.

Temporary Progress Report 3

I have to add my new Gantt chart and work completed when I get to school, therefore this progress report will be updated on November 16th. I am sorry that it has to be delayed.

Emotiv Response #2

This is the second email that I have received. I asked them about the order and gave them the order number. For some reason, they didn't say anything specific about the order. I think the main point is that it will take more time than expected. Here is the email exactly:

Hi Isabelle,

We’ll be using FedEx International Economy method to ship directly from China.

Unfortunately, we are experiencing a little delay in shipping due to FedEx service. We are hoping the issue will be resolved quickly (preferably within this week) so we can continue shipping.

Also, in the meantime, we have released iOS and Android Insight app.
- This is the link to iOS app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/emotiv-insight/id1031805596?l=vi&ls=1&mt=8
- This is the link to Android app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.emotiv.insightapp

- Insight app allows you to record sessions and review your performance metrics and Mental Commands app allows you to control a virtual object with your mind.

We thank you for your support and apologize for any inconvenience the delay in delivery of this order may have caused. We hope this instance has not tainted your experience with Emotiv and if it has, we hope to continue to work with you to improve your outlook in the future.

Kind regards,
Emy

Progress Report 3 (11/8/15)

Progress:

• I have found an extremely useful wireframe website where you can test out the positioning of various graphics for apps
• It can be used for many things, and the free trial is plenty as of now (I do not believe we will have to purchase a membership)
• This is the preview as of now, expect more soon! There is always ways to improve
• https://www.fluidui.com/editor/live/preview/p_aSUz6vve8epg6JOBypSbMUA22DpTPVUC.1447037055658
• With Lynda.com, there are plenty of tutorials and reviews for Objective C and App Design in general
• I am going to use this whenever I have time

Problems:

• A lot of the problems from last time haven't been resolved, and I could have done more studying
• No response on the forum specifically, but the response from the Emotiv official is a good thing
• While the wireframe is made, the code itself hasn't been created
• I will improve!!!

Plan:

• Finish the wireframe
• Do some concrete studying
• Get at least started on the code, if not finished
