September 2025 Team Meetings

Team meetings discussing multiple design solution pros and cons

Hour long weekly meetings were held, where the team gathers to discuss early design solutions. Shorter daily meetings were also scheduled to ensure each team member is continuing their individual work and the project is moving forward.

Design Options for Angle Measurement

The team discusses and writes out ideas to determine if Motion Capture or Sensors should be used for angle measurements to track exercise accuracy.

Design Options for Resistance Training

The team discusses many different resistance elements, one of which will be used in the prototype. Ideas discussed include: Electro-active polymers, Magneto-Rheological and Electro-Rheological (MR/ER) fluid, friction sliders, soft pneumatic actuators (balloons), motors, springs and elastic bands.
