In this week's session, all of the groups had prepared their own respective Lightning Talk presentations. Each group proceeded to present their progress thus far and the direction they were planning on taking their project.
After presentations ended, we met with our respective sub-groups and discussed what should be done next. We also were able to finalize our Bill of Materials.
Coby, Ben, and I also took the solar panel sheet, which is next to the old 1/12 scale track, outside in order to test it under the sun. We connected the battery charger we had to it to confirm its functionality for Maker Fair when were outside, possibly away from any outlets.
We're currently all researching and looking into Processing so that we can make a GUI that can interact with the podcars, our Arduino, and our Xbee units. The Summer 2016 Korean team had made a UI using Processing so we're diving in and trying to understand how their code works as well.
