Hello IPPD students, faculty, and spectators,

This week, we shifted gears toward getting ready for Prototype Inspection Day (PID) and looking ahead to our System Level Design Review (SLDR). With the semester wrapping up soon, our team focused on our first prototype session and how we’ll test it to make sure we’re on the right track. We also talked about sourcing components and figuring out what to build versus what to buy. During class, we went over what to expect for the SLDR presentation and started outlining how our system will come together. We are looking forward to talking with experienced engineers next week and getting all the feedback we can before the first real build phase begins. Overall, we’re feeling good about our progress and excited to show what we’ve been working on before heading into spring.

As always, go Gators, beat the Dawgs. Dream Steam is entering its Tebow Era. See you all at the game tomorrow!
