Boe-Bot - 11/17/16

When Carlos, Joel, and I arrived to Lab today we got cracking on the project. After we finalized the Problem Statement and confirmed it with Mrs. Vestal we received our Boe-Bot Kit. My first thought about the kit was that it was very confusing. Before we opened the kit we established our roles. Carlos seemed more into programming the actual bot, Joel was going to work on the design of the Boe-Bot, while I work on assembling the bot. The focus today was the assembly of the bot. We were also faced with the task of wiring the servos of the bot as well. The body was assembled and most of the wiring was finished. Although no one had a clue how to program or work the bot, it was coming together. At this point in time we were ahead of time according to our WBS, and Gantt chart. It is going to be very interesting to discover how this contraption is going to work. Today we also decided that we will be using a line follower kit on our Boe-Bot. The line follower is the best choice due to the concept of our problem statement.
