Lab Pack 10: Capstone Delivery (Week 10)

Capstone delivery. The homebrew ROM running on your modified core, with a five-minute demo and a written report. This is graded against the rubric in CAPSTONE.html.


What you ship

  • Git repo URL containing: modified core source, homebrew ROM source, build instructions, Toolchain Diary, written report.
  • Five-minute recorded demo (MP4 or webm).
  • Written report (one to three pages) covering: what you modified, why, what you read, what alternatives you considered, what you would do with another two weeks.

Tools you use

  • Whichever tools you actually used. The capstone is integrative, not exploratory.

Success criteria

  • The artefact actually runs. We will reproduce your build before grading.
  • The modification is non-trivial.
  • The demo runs at least sixty seconds and shows HDMI video and audio.
  • The report references the readings and names the alternatives.

Time budget

Plan for two ninety-minute lab sessions plus two hours of independent build-out. Slower students should plan for one extra session.

Submission

Push to your student repo under con-101/labs/lab-10/. Include source, a one-paragraph README, and a screenshot or short clip of the artefact running.
