This week, I worked on the proposal presentation with my team. I focused on some of the numerical aspects of calculating our requirements, as well as some of the updated drawings for the proposal. The calculations are important because they have to support our quantitative requirements, and the drawings because they can convey a lot more information about the physical footprint of our project than a description.
So far, I think we are on schedule. The next phase, design, will be important for us, especially for testing some subsystems so we know that they are viable avenues for implementing on our system.
In the next week, I hope to have a more clear idea on the individual parts we are looking for, in order to get a close estimate for the weight and function of our device.
