This is post is a summary of what my comp readers, Professor Jumadinova and Professor Brand, and I talked about on January 13th and 15th, 2025.
January 13th
With Professor Jumadinova we caught up on my progress over break and talked about FLAIRS. I worked on the eyes a lot over break and the generation aspects of the program. I am also able to detect emotions that correspond to movement now. She was really happy with my progress and talked about moving onto the experiments stage of things.
We also discussed applying to FLAIRS and how I would need an abstract to be finished. I got an abstract ready for JJ to read over and now I am working on the experiments part of the project.
January 15th
In my meeting with Professor Brand we also caught up on my progress and what molding I would be doing this semester. I want to make a mold of my face this semester to put on the robot. We also talked about how if I mold my chest I would need more Kleeman Fund money. I will still apply for the Kleeman again but put an emphasis on the need for face molding and the chest second. I have an alternative mannequin body to use if I do not get the funding again.
Goals
