the
Systems Lab
machines.
Expect to present a demonstration of your system during lab time.
Work may be completed in teams of two.
Use the mbed timer API, in conjunction with the PC serial port, to
devise a typing instructor. The system should track words-per-minute at
regular intervals, and display the results.
Use the host serial port (Use picocom /dev/ttyACM0 -b 9600 -l on
the Linux host to connect to the mbed serial port) as the input source.
A few obvious, optional enhancements could include:
- Generate the suggested text to type, and adjust the WPM score accounting for errors.
- Estimate WPM using smaller time slices with more regular feedback.
- Draw upon elements of earlier assignments to integrate rewards or game play into the system.
