Status Update 4/23/2016

Maker Faire is coming up, so the final stretch for the team is upon us. Below is the list of tasks that are being taken care to complete the Intermediate Solar Team's work.

  • Solidworks drawings are finalized for the mounting system for the solar panels; done by David DeOcampo.
  • Calculations are evaluated for accuracy, and put into a spreadsheet to display; done by Jaymie Zapata.
  • Researching materials and costs, as well as purchasing/ordering/acquiring the materials is nearly complete; done by David Luo. A few wiring components will be delivered in the next couple days.
  • We have distributed our information to other groups and acquired necessary information from them so that everyone is on the same page, and we are prepared for integration testing in the very near future.
  • Construction has begun and is well underway. We will hopefully be completed by week's end, but for now we have enough completed for most integration testing. 
Overall, and as a team, we are happy with our progress and composure in this critical time and we will be ready for Maker Faire in late May!
