Team Thirteen/Journal
From Maslab 2011
Monday, 1/3/2011
Team 13 will be operating at half-power for the first week; Kevin and Bayley are both due to arrive by the beginning of week two.
Current progress: Absentees aside, we nonetheless completed Checkpoint 1 by the deadline. Pegbot is now capable of 1) moving in a circle or in a straight path and 2) communicating with eeePC via Bot Client.
Future direction: Strategy discussion. Rebecca is studying what former groups have done, what has worked, what hasn't, etc. Our choice of strategy will likely dictate (and in turn, also be dictated by) the hardware details of our robot. Team 13 would like to receive input from all members, so efforts are being made to hold a real-time discussion with Kevin and Bayley. Dima is being trained in use of the laser cutter.
