This week I decided on the electrical parts we needed for our modules and arduino connection and made purchase orders for them. We are getting a slide potentiometer for the speed. Rotary encoders for the shield and aiming. We will use potentiometers from CMU for the steering. And then buttons for battery and shooting.
On the hardware/software interface side, I started the arduino code. I’ve looked a bit into what arduino libraries we will need. I’ve also written out pseudocode for what our program will need to do and initialized a github repo for us to work on.

For next week, there’s some design changes I want to make to the module’s 3d designs. I also want to make more progress on the arduino code.
