This week, our team has been focused on preparing for our Final Design Review (FDR) presentation, which is quickly approaching. We’ve made significant progress across several key areas and are working hard to ensure everything is ready to go. One of our main accomplishments was collaborating to complete the draft of our project poster. We spent time refining the design, content, and layout to make sure it clearly communicates our project’s goals, technical components, and results so far.

On Tuesday, we presented our FDR draft as a team. This dry run gave us a valuable opportunity to practice our delivery, receive feedback, and fine-tune both the content and timing of our presentation. We also finalized a draft version of our project video, incorporating helpful feedback from our liaison engineer to improve both the clarity and technical accuracy of the visuals and narration. Alongside these milestones, we’ve been continuing to work on our deliverables and documentation to make sure everything is organized and thorough ahead of next week.

Looking ahead, our focus for next week will be to complete the full FDR document as a team. We’ll also finish any remaining documentation, review final materials, and continue practicing for the presentation. With the FDR just around the corner, we’re feeling the pressure—but also the excitement—to showcase everything we’ve accomplished this semester.
