This week, our team had the opportunity to present our SLDR presentation to our peers and other coaches. We received a lot of helpful feedback on our presentation’s format, style, content, and visuals. The coaches were pleased with our figures and CAD models which explained the process in depth and reduced confusion for first time listeners. We also got to answer more technical questions about the problem that our product solves which will prepare us for the real presentation when we return from Thanksgiving break. Before then, we intend to submit our SLDR draft and wrap up additional testing. When we return, our liaisons from NextEra Energy will join us in Gainesville for the presentation, and we will conclude the semester with an established plan that they can sign off on. This includes details on our product plan, prototype, risks, drawings, models, and material purchases. We plan to order our electronic components after the break and perform tests before the semester wraps up. We look forward to presenting our work!
