Current status of project:
We have completed the preliminary report. This report includes extensive background research, an updated project scope, design specs with criteria for meeting specs, and a tentative project schedule and organization of project tasks. Our background research included looking at the use of fMRI, how sleep affects fMRI, how sleep stages are defined, some predetermined trends of how eye behavior predicts sleep, and some current methods of providing feedback during MRIs. Our new scope includes more specificity. Our design specs include more quantitative specifications than were determined during our group's meeting last week.
Work planned for next week:
This week, we will complete the preliminary presentation. We also plan to begin analysis of the eye tracker data received from Dr. Dosenbach to search for patterns and to identify the parameters our software will use to detect sleep.
Anything needed from client or TA or instructor to continue work:
-Feedback on preliminary report
