Week # (June 24– June 28, 2019
Accomplishments:
Measured, cut, stripped wires
Painted ‘lawn’ (rest of board)
Created ‘cage’ to insulate heat
Problem & Solutions
Problem: RaPi doesn’t provide enough power to supply all of the motors/sensors. Solution: purchased/used a hat and tested.
Problem: Cage was too big at first. Solution: Had to cut a foot off the top by hand. Now fits through doorways.
Plans for next week:
Solder hat to RaPi – had to order another hat
Finish installing the cut/stripped wires
Gather data
