S2 | Week 6 - Presentation 1 (2nd set of teams)

(2/28/18) This week's meeting consisted of the rest of the teams presenting their first presentations, which took up most of the time. After we got updates on all the sub-teams' progress and planned next steps, we got together with our respective sub-teams and discussed what we wanted to do next.

The multi-podcar capabilities were added to the GUI and what I really wanted to do next was to take the 14 buttons that represented the different stations along the track and combine them into an options menu. This will make our GUI look more compact and less clunky.

S2 | Week 5 - Presentation #1

In this week's meeting (2/21/18), we were the 2nd group to present our 1st presentation. The first 5 groups were to get 10% extra credit so that's why we chose to go on the first day. After watching the rest of the groups' presentations, we met with our respective sub-teams to discuss what our next steps would be.

We decided to further develop our Python GUI and add options to choose a specific pod to travel to the designated station that the user chooses. (Multi-pod capabilities)

S2 | Week 4 - Valentine's Day AE Presentation

This week's meeting mainly took place in ENGR 189 again, where Dr. Furman presented on how to use the Assertion-Evidence method of presenting. After this presentation, all of the classes split up into their respective project groups and classrooms. We went back to the warehouse and the sub-groups got together to touch base.

Ben was able to make a basic GUI using Python and we decided to expand on it and further learn the language. Therefore, our GUI will now be written in Python as opposed to Processing.

S2 | Week 3 - More research on GUI

In this week's meeting, we took a group photo of the Spartan Superway Team and we watched a presentation about ATN's/PRT's in Sweden.

With the rest of the time we had, we got together and kept going through the Processing code to try and make more sense of it. We then began discussing the possibility of exploring and using another language to build our UI with. We agreed to take a look at Python as well in the upcoming weeks to determine whether it was a viable alternative for us to use.
