This week was a huge milestone in our team’s progress, because we were able to present our work from this semester to our liaisons from NextEra Energy at our System Level Design Review (SLDR). We were extremely grateful for the technical feedback we received from our coaches but also the coaches of the other teams in our presentation room. This presentation served as an approval for our hard work and plans for next semester where we will begin a more hands-on, iterative manufacturing and testing phase. This week, we sent our final memos, completed our individual evaluations, sent our SLDR reports for sponsor approval, and closed out the semester. Over Christmas break, our team will maintain communication and finalize our design’s internal and external components in SolidWorks. We also plan to place purchase orders for electronics and other structural materials before and during break. With this preparation, our team can hit the ground running in the first week of the spring semester. We look forward to sharing our progress along the way in our future blog posts!
