EECS473-Concussion Project Setup Instructions

Welcome to the project! The repository of the 5th EECS 473 Group - HITS Concussion solution. Follow these steps to get started:

Step 1: Accept Invitations

Please accept my invitations for the EECS473-Concussion and IMU_I2C repositories. 🙏

Step 2: Clone the Repository

Step 2.1 - If the repo has not been cloned

Clone the App repository in your desired folder using the following command:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/<uniquename>/EECS473-Concussion.git

The --recurse-submodules should automatically pull the IMU_I2C repo along with EECS 473-Concussion. If you get an error, check your permissions. If you prefer to use an SSH key, replace the URL with:

git@github.com:<uniquename>/EECS473-Concussion.git

Step 2.2 - If the repo has been previously cloned

If you have already cloned the repository before I added the submodules, run the following commands to initialize them:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Step 3: Update Submodules

If needed, you can run the following command to pull any updates to any submodule:

git submodule update --remote

Step 4: Open NRF Connect

Open the NRF Connect application in VSCode.

Step 5: Import Existing Application

Go to the NRF Connect panel on the left and click "Open an existing application." Navigate to the IMU_I2C folder within the cloned repo. Make sure to select the entire IMU_I2C folder but not the EECS473-Concussion folder.

Step 6: Create Build Configuration

NRF Connect should import the application, but you need to create your own build configuration. Under the "APPLICATIONS" tab of NRF Connect, click "Add a build configuration." Use the following settings:

• Board target: nrf5340dk/nrf5340/cpuapp
• Base configuration files: prj.conf (you may need to manually browse and add the file if it doesn’t show in the dropdown)
• Base Devicetree overlays: nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.overlay

Once this is complete, click the "Build configuration" button at the bottom.

Step 7: Build and Flash

You should now be ready to build and flash the NRF5340 device under the "ACTIONS" tab.
