This week, I mainly worked with my team to finish securing all the motors and the electrical components to their appropriate locations within the structure of the vending machine. For example, I helped attach the motors themselves to the holes that Ashira had designed during the mechanical part. Some of the motors could be completely inserted inside of the holes but some could not be since if it was too tight of a fit, the movement would be restricted. Some of the motors had to be angled upwards also to prevent mechanical jamming. Additionally, I helped find a good position of the protoboard containing the voltage regulator on the side wall so that all the motors would move as inteneded. After that location was found, I helped glue that part to the side wall. I worked on making holes in the back wall of the vending machine so that wires and connectors that needed to be attached to external outlets could be passed through.
Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?
I believe I am currently on schedule since we as a team were able to finish all our MVP related tasks a few days before demo day.
What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?
For the next week, my focus will be working on the final video with my team and the final report with my team.
