The second half of this week was Spring Carnival, so our team did not work as much this week compared to other weeks. However, we still were able to make good progress and accomplish this week’s goals in the first half of the week. Our team has continued making refinements and improvements to the project by adding new functionalities, modifying our system, and fixing bugs.
There are no new significant risks for our project that we foresee occurring in the future. We discovered this week that someone outside our team seems to have been touching our robot and seemed to chip off part of one of our 3D printed parts as well as shifted around some of our parts on our robot. However, the damage seems to be minimal, and if this presents a problem in the future we can 3D print replacement parts.
No significant changes have been made to our design, and the realization of our robot is going smoothly and as planned. There are no major changes to our schedule, as our progress this week as a team is mostly on track. Once we attach the motors to a fixed position, our system will be complete, and we can begin testing the entire system as a whole.
