Process

Initially, I had planned to make the bee report precise locations based on geotags. I wanted to assign longitude and latitude data to specific locations so that the bee would tweet when I took it to specific locations, such as different buildings on campus. This proved to be rather difficult to communicate over UART connection and the adafruit connect app. So instead I opted for something simpler. For a while, I worked on making the bee respond to touch and make it tweet when it was being touched, but I ran into more problems. A third attempt using accelerometer data proved to be successful after some more trial. 

Throughout the entire process, there was a lot of 'googling' and debugging. An early success was figuring out how to transmit text through UART where I sent the word 'hello' over and over. Later on, what was transmitted became more relevant as I developed a better grip on the code and tools.
