Group Status Report for 10/3

Current risks:
  • The current risk is we have taken a bit long to acquire parts, and are now a bit behind schedule. We are managing this by doing the things we can do without those parts ahead of time, this way we’ll still be on schedule.
Changes:
  • We have had to change the specific actuators we were planning on using because of the costs, although it has taken time away from us in the form of extra research. Going forward we’ll keep this lesson and mind and research something thoroughly before deciding on it.

No changes to the schedule have been necessary.

Danié’s Status Update for 10/3

This week I settled on working with an Arduino and have gotten reacquainted with programming it so that once the circuit for detection the pieces is wired up, it will be easy to fine tune. 

By next week, I hope to have that circuit built and tested and get ready to move onto the board top.

I am still personally on-schedule, but I will not be if I don’t pick up my pace and meet my expected deliverables for next week.
