This week, our team worked towards realizing the new design changes set in place from the previous week. While the rough idea was presented the previous week, smaller details for our design are being flushed out and more defined. Throughout the course of the week, the team also spent many hours in the IPPD Prototyping Lab as well as the Herbert Wertheim laboratory continuing tests and improving our designs. The team also faced setbacks in certain design aspects, as existing problems were not easily solved using simple solutions. However, we remain determined and confident that we can solve these issues and even have more ideas just waiting to be implemented!
