# Topics To Be Covered In This Post #
- What I did this week
- Refactored the IC Acceleration function
- IC page script (Toggle)
- Initialized Steering wheel Signals Controls (Not yet functional)
- Navigation Page (Revised Style sheet and improved operations
- What I plan to do next
# IC Acceleration Button #
This week I updated the Acceleration button to operate on a Pressed and Released event instead of the previously used Clicked event, this allows us to implement both Acceleration and Deceleration proportionally for the vehicle’s Speed and the Engine RPM.
Triggers for this operation can be done by the following inputs:
- Touch & Hold (On a touch-friendly device)
- Click and hold
- Space bar (Can be mapped to a different key as well)
# Script Mode #
I also started work on the Script mode which feeds relevant values to the demo applications when a user is not interacting with the AGL_Demo_Control_Panel.
Next week, I will extensively work on this to present exciting sequences not just for the demo apps but also for the control panel itself.
# Steering Wheel Controls #
This week also saw the inclusion of dummy inputs for the Steering Wheel Controls, i.e.:
- Volume Up
- Volume Down
- Next Track
- Prev Track
- Stop/ Play
- Accept Call/ Decline Call
These Buttons are yet to be assigned any actions and are highly subject to change after a discussion with my mentors but it serves to showcase the various operations the control panel can provide.
# Navigation Page #
The Navigation Page was revisited to improve its usability and operations, It can now provide recommendations for Source and Destination addresses for navigation, live as they are being typed.
# What Next? #
- Make Kuksa Subscription Scripts to view the changes being made. Since not all demo applications subscribe to their corresponding VSS signals.
- Introduce some better error handling for when the server is not connected or found on the specified IP address.
- Improve GitHub README and documentation
