04-28 Configure 3D printer

Today a 3d printer arrived in the mail. I figured out how to make the first layer stick (use gluestick on print bed) and printed a test case for the ESP32. The research papers explained that multipath fading is a big issue. Most research teams had some sort of test stand set up. I will try to attach the battery and the ESP32 to a pole using a 3d printed mount. Like this, the signal strength of the devices will not be impaired by obstacles.

Here is a video of the print:

I also configured many to many connections between servers and clients on the server side. The branch feature/offer-connection-and-readvertise-on-connection has been merged to master. The beacons were quite slow to connect to since they were designed to turn on and off every 100ms to save battery. Now the server is in proper server mode and supports reconnections at a refresh rate of 200ms. I am not sure how small I can make this interval yet before it gets congested.
