This week started with building the gantry. I helped Andrew with part of it on Wednesday before we finally finished it. After that, I worked on getting the motors to function properly. I did a lot of tuning for the motor control to make sure real world distances matched the program distances. Ethan and I also tried to set up the Pi but we ran into a couple different connection issues. After spending a lot of our day on that, we decided that it was a better use of our time to get everything working on a computer, and we could fix the Pi after the interim demo.
Next week I will help finalize our interim demo preparations. I also plan on flashing the Pi again to see if we can get it working. After that I will work with my team to start ordering the parts for the final structure, and we will hopefully be able to start building that soon. I am fairly on track schedule-wise
