Our group made more strides this week: we had another meeting with our liaison, and we were able to clarify plenty of points about our project, especially how we will validate our project and timelines. Furthermore, we will likely be traveling to Naples to visit the Arthrex HQ in the middle of October, look out for more details on this blog! We will also be receiving some devices from them along with Solidworks and Altium files, we can’t wait to work with them! Our goals are to finish up our PDS and project timelines, on our next blog you’ll see more details about them!

Second Week!
Our group had our first meetings with the coach and liaison, and they were a success! We were able to get any misconceptions about the project’s expectations cleared up, and we are set up to have a continuous stream of communication between all parties! We are all very excited to dive into the nitty-gritty parts of the project, and in class, this was helped by the Brain Walking activity that was taught to us by a visiting engineering-education faculty member! This practice helped us understand more about our own projects and see where each team member stood in terms of their comprehension of the scope of work. We are also unveiling a new and improved logo that is now on this webpage!
First week!
Our team has kicked off research on the project sponsored by Arthrex, which challenges us to explore how a saline pump can be added to an RF probe! We’ve been working together to line up meeting times with both our liaison and our coach, and making sure everyone stays connected and on track. Beyond diving into the technical details, we’ve also had some fun building our identity by designing a team logo and choosing a name that represents who we are; you can see it here on this blog!
