This is the latest release in use. After long months of rigorous work, CycleBuddy system is finally ready for production!

Attributes:

How does this release improve our system?

A. Our system is complete, in terms of circuitry and low level modules:

a. Our sensors are narrowed down to one Pi Camera, one Ultrasonic Sensor, and one Hall Effect Sensor.

b. Our Proof Of Concept system design has met our expectations. The modules were placed in a strategic way to operate as we need.

c. The system is fully tested, operational and real-time!

B. Our Package of the CycleBuddy program includes all necessary components to coordinate with the physical system:

a. The programs are event-driven and split into multiple threads.

b. The system is dynamically built and generated using Cmake and Make.

c. Unit tests have been implemented for the different components of our system.

Expectations:

Our expectations is that this system will be ready for international use within 4-6 months. There are some improvements to be dealt with such as improving the proof of concept system design, such as using other materials and not scotch. Making our system design more professional will surely catch investor's eyes.

Finally, improving the mobile app and making sure the car plate recognising API is international, will allow us to pursue with this product and market it.
