What are the most significant risks that could jeopardize the success of the project? How are these risks being managed? What contingency plans are ready?
Our most significant risks is that our second iteration of the PCB isn’t going to work. Each iteration takes time, so we want to get it right. However, with the mid semester demo coming up, we need a working MVP of our project, which will heavily rely on our PCB doing its core functions. Our contingency plan is to have a bread board version done so we can test out our software, continue iterating on our PCB designs and rushing the shipping times so they arrive quicker.
Were any changes made to the existing design of the system (requirements, block diagram, system spec, etc)? Why was this change necessary, what costs does the change incur, and how will these costs be mitigated going forward?
We currently don’t have any changes to the design.
Provide an updated schedule if changes have occurred. This is also the place to put some photos of your progress or to brag about a component you got working.
We have delegated tasks for spring break. Lata is going to test the PDR algorithm in MATLAB, Katherine is going to work on the route planning system, and Brandon going to work and order the second iteration of the PCB.
No changes to our schedule.
This is the second iteration of our PCB design
