Setting up the quadruped for testing

This week the Addtronics team has hit the ground running by beginning to implement feedback given during QRB1 and also begin the next phase of testing. Picking up from QRB1 further research has been conducted to determine if the strength of the 3D printed interface will be sufficient for the project. Additionally the robotic arm has been covered using foam to protect it in case there is any fall. This should protect the components from large damage if a fall were too occur. Additionally, the raspberry Pi was updated to use the hardware gpio/clock in sides processes. Also, the GUI has been further updated to be more user friendly. Aside from this we have started setting up tests and updating designs and parts depending on the outcomes of testing. So far we have begun unit testing to examine the performance of the integrated system.
