Status Update – 11/30/2017

Goals for the week-

  • Get a working motor that appropriately responds to changes in light on the photo-resistor.
  • Finish the battery status indicator with LEDs.
  • Integrate code for both of our subsystems.

Tasks completed-

  • Peter: Setup motor to respond to light.
  • Nakul: Setup battery status indicator with LEDs.

Challenges-

  • Once again we faced a situation where the device was not recognized by the PC and we were unable to program and test the board after a certain point.
  • Due to this we were unable to integrate code for the different parts.

Plan for next week-

  • Both: Integrate code
  • Peter: Test the rotation and setup mechanical side to hold up the solar panel.
  • Nakul: Setup low power mode for specific times on RTCC and for low battery level.
