The most significant risks that could jeopardize the success of the project is the integration of the subsystems. We are still at the phase of building our subsystems separately so it is hard to tell how long or difficult it will be to integrate them together. We didn’t plan for the integration to take as long as the building of the subsystems, but if we do happen to need more time for integration we will make our testing plan shorter. Instead of 10 full games and 100 different board states, we could do 5 full games and 50 different board states instead.
No changes were made to the existing design of the system. We purchased more LED strips, but this is not a change a just a consequence of our previous choices to skip every 2 LEDs. One slight improvement we made was to cut acrylic circles to put into the cut outs from the wooden board so the light from the LEDs could diffuse up to be seen at the top of board so the player does not have to be directly above the board staring down into the cutouts to see which color, if at all, is being shown. These acrylic circles will incur small TechSpark costs.
