This week, I focused on creating a TCP client using the TCP/IP stack that Microchip supplies in their MPLAB Harmony package. I have not yet been able to send data from the PIC32 client to a server on my personal laptop, but I’m nearly certain the problem just lies with the code and not how the hardware is connected. Unfortunately, my efforts will be redirected to the Fingerprint Scanner and Interface for the time being. I hope that we resolve the issue with the Fingerprint Scanner so that we could potentially re-implement the TCP client/server.
Over Thanksgiving, I will try to work on a control interface for our system. The interface will display components such as who has recently used the fingerprint scanner and at what time they used it. After break, I will work on the Fingerprint Scanner with Joe. I will initially help decode the C++ library that Joe started using for the Fingerprint Scanner.
