Week 3: Whiteboard Brainstorming

This week, Parrotronix huddled around our whiteboards and started brainstorming the electrical, mechanical, and computer engineering aspects of our bird friends. You read that right: we couldn’t fit all of our ideas on just one whiteboard!

We’re excited to continue working out the details of our project with our liaison engineer and coach, but this is just the beginning. We’ve been further developing our project documentation, and we are starting to gather sources for materials, create concept drawings, and manage system diagrams. We’re still in the early stages, but we’re already investigating possible mechanical systems and the electrical architecture of the installation. Once we develop a more detailed plan with the help of our liaison engineer, it’s full steam ahead for Parrotronix.
