The additional power switch arrived and I tested it out. It does not switch to the backup battery fast enough to not interrupt power to the RPi. However, this is not a focus as it is not in our engineering requirement. I did test the power situation with a 12V power source to mimic the car battery and the 12 V battery plugged in. Both work with the buck converter to step down the voltage to 5 V. Final testing is done with the power situation.
CAD rendering was sent to a printer to have printed. I will then take some time to put our RPi together and get everything working inside of the case.
James and I have spent a few hours this week, working together via Teams Meeting to start working through the software portion of the project. With his help, I was able to incorporate all my main UI buttons to the main screen. Now I will begin working on adding the functionality to each sub-window.
