February 15th: Robotics Meeting and Homework

Today was OK.

In today's Robotics Meeting, the electrical team and I researched for the proper power requirements and legalities of our solution to power the electrical parts. We accidently got the wrong USB cable yesterday, so today we added the proper one to the purchase list. 

The programming team also wrote some new code for our launcher system. We believe that the engineering team should be very close to finishing everything they need, so hopefully we can physically test soon!

The folks working on the limelight and apriltags also got stuck today. They were able to retrieve values, but understanding them was really hard. It states that the readings are conveyed in meters, then somewhere else we see it in "pixel units," then april tags are specified in something called a 4x4 matrix... something... I forgot. Anyways, we'll have to do more research about the april tags and limelight later.

I have so much homework today! I need to get started on it soon if I want to sleep at all tonight.

Thanks for reading,
Issac
