For spring break and the first-week back, we started developing each of our respective subsystems. Raymond has made progress on the CV algorithm and is currently trying to get his Blob Detection Algorithm working. Jasper has started working on the UI and deciding on what information to put. Joseph has finished the mechanical robotic arm, as well as the electrical subsystem of the arm. He has also started work on the lower embedded software control of the various stepper and servo motors. Our parts were all delivered and picked up this week. We are all at a decent pace to have the robotic arm and our respective subsystems working by the interim demo. We have not started working on the software controller, but we believe it should be done as part of the integration process, as well as after the interim demo. We have also each worked on the ethics assignment and are ready to discuss it with other groups. We will update our progress in our schedule accordingly.
