Weekly Update #8: Button and Filtering

Hello,
We hooked up the Bluetooth module again to allow the device to communicate with a smartphone or computer wirelessly. We also put a button on the device to act as a kill switch. The button currently restarts the device. We need to change this so that it just stops the functions of the device. Since this is not an integral part of the device, we aren't spending much time on it. Should it not work, it will just be left off of the final deliverable.

We worked on trying different ways to filter the signals as the sensors are not very accurate. We haven't found a way that works well enough to make us want to keep it in the program for the device. This is what most of the remaining time will be spent on with the project.
