What are the most significant risks that could jeopardize the success of the project? How are these risks being managed? What contingency plans are ready?
Progress with the team has been excellent. This week, we focused on the project proposal presentations. It went very well! Great job to Nathan!
Some risks we face moving forward is the workload of our other courses. As the semester picks up, we all have more auxiliary work to complete. However, we are all on the same page about keeping our Capstone project a high priority. This way, we stay on top of the schedule and make good, incremental progress.
Were any changes made to the existing design of the system (requirements, block diagram, system spec, etc)? Why was this change necessary, what costs does the change incur, and how will these costs be mitigated going forward?
Nathan has been switched to primarily dealing with the software stack, and Jonathan has been switched to dealing with the data hub components. This change was made due to a better fit of interests within the project. This will allow us to all make more progress in the project as we will be maximally engaged. Other than this, no changes were made as research is still going on for each aspect of the project. No changes were made to the schedule either.
