  • Attempted to deploy Dong’s PPM Widget.
    • It launches in IE, but not in Firefox. Need to bring in debug players
    • There is an endpoint problem. Took screenshots for Dong to peruse
    • Meeting with Tangi
    • Impromptu meeting with Bill
  • Renewing my ACM membership
  • Submitting reimbursement for patent application fees
  • More work with Mike’s Google interface.

Start: 9:00am

  • Finished the diagnostic sketch
  • Had lots of trouble with the addressing of the i2c rheostats.  I forgot that the arduino drops the left most bit because it automatically takes care of the read/write bit.  I found my blog entry which reminded me.
  • the registers sub address are 0x80 or 0x00.
  • The secondary register circuitry was wrong.  It was attached on the wiper side instead of the power side.
  • reordered the speaker wires so its easier to tell which amplifier knob goes to which finger.
  • Got 4 fingers working.  The last one is not getting the proper voltage rating from the control voltage divider.
  • currently each midi is producing a constant tone for testing purposes on both left and right.  Once I get the left and right to play independently I can experiment with pitch bend and different tones per finger.

Mike 10.12.2011

Been awhile since my last update…

  • Been at my internal desk each morning for the past couple weeks submitting requests, setting up my development environment, and doing as much development as possible.
  • Acquired PKI certificates for myself and the servers
  • Figured out how to configure a tomcat server to use the certs, two-way ssl, and pass the cert along the HTTPRequest
  • Wrote a Filter that pulls the certificate off the requests and attempts to validate the user with the central authentication server
  • When the user’s credentials come back, the information is stored on the session for future requests and the user is allowed to continue
  • If the user is not authorized a generic page stating that fact is shown
  • Wrote a simple test servlet that demonstrates this capability
  • Deployed the servlet to the integration machine where it is currently working just fine

  • PPM Widgets
    • added Project status
    • updated FinancialDataView to have the fields from Project, added FinancialDataViewStatus for project status
    • added query to retrieve the status of the project (may need fine tuning, takes about 4 seconds to retrieve the data)

Start: 9:00am

  • The thumb sensor was not working.  I think the heat from the soldering broke the contacts attached to the wiring on the sensor.
  • Started a diagnostics sketch which helps test the individual components by making it easy to activate and deactivate the parts.  This sketch will come in handy for diagnosing issues in the future as well as easy experimenting of change how the amps and sounds ramp up and down to get a more natural feel.
  • This sketch is pretty much done but there are a couple of bugs that need to be worked out.  This should be working early tomorrow so hopefully I will be able to test everything tomorrow so the main sketch will work.
  • Took a bunch of pictures with my phone.  Going to look through them and e-mail the good ones to myself.  They will be up tomorrow morning.

  • created FinancialDataDataGridSkin and modified FinancialDataItemRenderer
    • hover highlight and selection removed for non-editable row
    • backGround color added for editable row
    • MX + Spark setting in Flex Build Path not allowing spark theme? This doesn’t allow Spark DataGrid to use alternatingRowColors property, ended up modifying FinancialDataItemRenderer instead of using the skin class
  • cleaning up UI
  • create view for budget_centers and appropriations joined
    • CREATE ALGORITHM = UNDEFINED VIEW `__view_budget_center` AS SELECT budget_centers . * , appropriations.duration, appropriations.status
      FROM `budget_centers`
      LEFT JOIN appropriations ON budget_centers.appropriation = appropriations.type

  • Powered everything up.  No smoke
  • Sensors working but no sounds coming out on “contact.”
  • Attached headphones and found that the midi was working properly so it is probably a problem with the amplifier.
  • Eventually got to a point where the peak light on the large amplifiers was lighting up.  Looked at the speakers and found out I used the wrong wires on one end.
  • Once fixed sound worked.  Although the vibration goes through the whole unit, the finger that the speakers has strong enough vibrations that you don’t notice the other fingers vibrating as much.
  • Fixed the analog inputs so 0 is the thumb and 4 is the pinky.
  • Got the second finger working on that rheostat.  Currently both fingers are playing the same sound because the pan functions not working right.  Also there’s a direct connection to the i2c controller so I am still not sure if the bus will work properly.
  • Forgot my phone today so pictures will be included on Mondays entry.
  • All testing has been done using my old sketch so I still have to work out the problem with the simulation to get all the fingers working at the same time.

end 6:00

Tom DeVito 10.6.2011

Start: 9:00am

  • Finished wiring all the components together.
  • Grouped up and routed the wires so it is more obvious where wires go if they get disconnected as well as reduce clutter.
  • Not sure if the i2c bus will work as I currently have it.  most examples ave all the circuits in series wit a pull up resistor after each one.  I currently have them in parallel so we will see.
  • Added in the other 4 fingers to the executive sketch as well as added functions using the commgr class, for sending data to the PC so I can ave a console tat sows all the fingers data.

End: 6:00pm

  • Talked to Bill D, mostly about not freaking out Stark.
  • Dong met with Tanji. Meetings will be either Monday or Thursday, with donuts. Since Monday is a holiday, first donuts meeting will be Thursday.
  • Got admin privileges. Mike thinks he’ll have some code to test tomorrow or so.
  • Going through Mike’s code to see how he’s talking to Google.

  • Lengthened the wires for the sensor circuits and attached a connector to them
  • I think I might have found the problem in my code.   I made some changes but will have to get at least one finger wired up completely before I can test it.
  • Noticed that I didn’t wire one of the rheostats to the proper address.  Issue was resolved.

  • I know I shouldn’t have, but went ahead and updated to the Flash Player 11.0. It kept crashing in Firefox. Not just the our software, but Adobe’s as well. Chrome uses the version 11.0 and it looks ok. Well, going back to the version 10.
  • The problem I have had with ADL (Adobe Air Debug Launcher) for the mobile apps turned out to be related to the FlashFireBug plugin. mm.cfg file in my home directory is set to pre-load the plugin swf on start up. Somehow it messes up the ADL…. Set the PreloadSWF field to empty, and now it runs. I had to remove the plugin completely because it tries to fill the field again and when it did, it messed up the ADL again.
