Happy Hour #1

This week we have done several things:

• Meet with professor Beauchamp to talk about our control system and some details that are still missing or not calculated.
• We sent an email to see if we could complete our project on site and the professors could evaluate it there.
• Practice our parts for the happy hour which will be just a few hours after this post
• Parts have arrived and we have started the implementation
• Our client sent us the information for the web host which he is paying so the software part implementation has also begun.

progress report deadline extension

We were given a time extension for the progress report and, therefore, we verified all parts carefully and will be submitting it as soon as all the parts are completely finished and moodle is back up.

Progress report 1

Almost all the parts for the progress report are completed, some minor details are still missing like the format for page numbers, appendices, etc.. We should finish the complete report tomorrow before the deadline

Finished design phase presentation

Today we finally finished the presentation with the basic design specifications. Some other more specific details are still unfinished but we will finish them on time for the progress report.
