We met in person before winter break to discuss organizational/meta-level stuff.

Day 1: Jan 9
Gary looked into the OpenCV libraries and worked on vision code.
Amanda and Tim assembled the pegbot, and Anthony got a basic drive program running, completing Checkpoint 1. This took longer than expected due to mysterious electrical problems that went away, and problems with the stock Arduino command decoder that wouldn't allow the motors to be driven backward.
We met and decided on the general mechanical design of the robot, agreeing to prototype scoring mechanisms but mostly leaning toward a dumper/launcher. We also decided how to spend our sensor points and what we intended to order online (most notably omni-wheels).
Gary and Tim took the pegbot and eeePC home to work on Checkpoint 2 with a bump sensor.
