| In this week we had a meeting with Manuel and Paulo regarding new problems with our components list. We changed the two micro controllers to one easy to use board, in order to control DC and stepper motors. Instead of buying a chassis, we decided to print 3D model at ISEP. We also changed our 9V batteries to 6xAA, to be able to recharge them lately. At last, we decided to add user feedback during giving voice commands to our robots, by implementing 2 LED diodes: Red and Green one. | In this week we had a meeting with Manuel and Paulo regarding new problems with our components list.

| + | ==== 11th Week Report ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | 11th week was the week when we finally got our components that we wanted and can start building the prototype. We were behind on the schedule but we still have time to finish everything. There is also a need for more wires and screws. There are still things we need to figure out and can finalize the 3D drawings for the printable materials. For example battery placement and connections. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== 12th Week Report ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | In this week we have finished the final drawings for 3D printer and we just have to wait for that. The testing process have started and what we should to do is to develope the code and then to improve it. We have fixed the problem with Arduino and now everything is going properly. We also started the paper and we have to focus more for some stuff included in this paper. | ||

| + | Most of our components had arrived but we are still waiting for components that are coming from electrofun. Arduino did not have an USB cable included in the box but we will be getting one later today. All the materials we obtain has to be kept at school. In the workshop we can not use materials without asking, only the tools and the working place. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The charger that we are using for the battery will be shared with team 3. They have it already and we have to discuss with them when we want to use it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In testing phase we need to show that all the functions required and chosen for the project are working. Maybe even test the voice functioning outside. Also we could show our drawings that we make. | ||

| + | ==== 11th Meeting (2016-05-25) ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Agenda: === | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1. Can we get some more long cables? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2. How do we physically connect the battery to the Arduino? | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | === Minute: === | ||
| + | |||
| + | We received some cables to cut and use. We will get a piece to connect the battery and the arduino. The 3D drawings are almost finished and will be printed as soon as possible. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== 12th Meeting (2016-06-02) ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Agenda: === | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1. We uploaded a draft of the paper, could we already receive some feedback? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2. Does Manuel have the adaptors for us? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 3. Do you have any idea when the 3D printed parts will arrive? | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | === Minute: === | ||
| + | |||
| + | After this meeting we have to focus more on the paper regarding about existing product and we must include a lot of referinces everywhere. Regarding about the table from paper, we have to reduce the informations and to make it clear and to avoid the links. If we need some components like screw and nut, we must to create a list of materials which we should to include the dimensions and quantity. For the user manual, we should to put on there how the robot is working and how to fix some little issues, how to charge the battery, autonomy etc. Finally, we have to create a video regarding about our experience during the project in EPS Group and the video presentation should have no more than 2-3 minutes. | ||

| + | ==== 13th Meeting (2016-06-09) ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Agenda: === | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1. We uploaded a manual and poster, could we get some feedback? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2. Do you have our mechanical parts? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 3. Do you have any idea when the 3D printed parts will arrive? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 4. Can we cut the cables from the LED or do you have others for us? | ||
| + | |||
| + | 5. Regarding the final presentation, | ||
| + | |||
| + | 6. Could you check our connections before soldering, not to destroy our 3rd Arduino? | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Minute: === | ||
| + | |||
| + | 1. Changes poster: use European English, consider using the same ribbon as for the flyer, no periods, pictures in blue like the 3D model or customization. | ||
| + | Changes manual: use the same e-mail, specify the battery and charger, pen changing could be better explained, some spelling errors. | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2. Monday | ||
