Discussed how the AC system and solar panels work congruently.

Advised to put extension of the tent as a future progress.

Advised on how to write the report. Chapter 2 will go over parts we used and why, as well as changes we made from the proposal.  Chapter 3 will cover hardware build, software build, testing of product and results, and analysis. Chapter 4 should include the power budget.

Told the professor that we should have the build of the tent done by next week and that we should be working on the programing the week after.

Went over the progress log and explained the updates on adding a gas lift spring rod.

We discussed the problems with the motor and how we plan to solve them.

Was advised to add a locking mechanism to help solve the weight problem.

Discussed how we will add motorized wheels in the future to help open the system.

Advised to start working on the report.

Discussed important dates for the new semester. Was advised to focus on being detailed on the report.

Went over the website and ad advised us on how to change the active timeline.

Advised to add email correspondents over the summer to the Advisor Minutes.

Discussed the progress log, explained the improvements we made by attaching new motors on to the frame.

 Asked to add a link on the website for final testing results.

Was asked to change the syntax of the system requirements.

Told the professor that we will be adding a lift system to solve the weight problem.

Updated the professor that we acquired new motors for the frame that was able to output the required torque that we need to lift the frame and the solar panels. 

Told the professor that we had limited time to focus on the project since we had finals that week.

Discussed the new frame that we created and showed how the motors are going to connect to them

Discussed that we will use PVC pipes

Discussed new motor changes.

Was told that the engineering specification table is missing

Professor checked that the system requirements have been revised

Was told to update the active timeline

Was told to update the Time and effort table.

Asked to update the active timeline

We discussed he progress log and the development we are making on the project

We discussed that we are planning on withdrawing and giving the project more time.

We will be updating the professor as we continue on working on the project. Our next update will be on 3/26.

We discussed that the website will be updated weekly, as originally planned.

Was asked to revise the system requirements to look like a checklist

We discussed the charging of the battery through a wall outlet and how we might go about achieving that. 

Discussed the progress log

Went over the website

Advised to speed up the work on the project

Discussed the progress log and the issues we are facing with the tent deployment system.

We discussed that the size of the tent will be different from the original proposed design, and that it will be designed as a 1 person tent.

Asked to add weight and weather proofing in the system requirements.

Went over testing plan and asked to add outside temperature readings for the AC system test plan.

Discussed the pole system and its function as well as how we are developing the tent deployment system.

Discussed the progress made for the AC system as well as the power module. 

Discussed the changes made for the tent deployment system. We showed how we plan on deploying the tent ant that we will be changing the system to have minimal intervention in the beginning to keep the solar panels safe.

We went over the testing plan and was asked to create a table to complement the plan.

We went over the power budget, was asked to add the voltage, current, and power requirements for each component as well as battery capacity

Went over the progress log and the problems that we are encountering in the making of the AC system.

Went over system checklist.

Asked to create a plan for testing the individual modules. Consider conditions on how to test the project.

Asked to create a power budget.

Asked to change the background of the website so the subject is easier to read

We discussed clearly that we are deviating from the proposed idea of putting the solar panels on top of the tent and putting it on the ground by the side of the tent. We also discussed that we will be using a tent that we already own instead of making the tent from scratch. We explained that we will be reinventing the frame that comes with the tent and making it so that it is deployable so it still follows the original plan of the project. 

Discussed that Emmanuel will be working on creating the skeletal frame.

Went over the comments of the design proposal by Dan Eifret. We discussed options of adding anchors for stability and making an option for manual deployment, also discussed the motors we will be using for the system as well as the fabric we will be using, also touched on the safety features of the solar panel that we are using.

We discussed the requirements of the system in detail, was asked to create a check-list for the requirements of the system, create a testing plan, and to add it to the system requirements to the success criteria tab in the website.

Asked to create a power budget for the system for each component. Justify the power rating of the source and the power requirements of the components in the system.

Advised on how to update the website for the project phase, i.e. change success criteria to system requirements, and creating anew progress log for the project phase.

Asked to create an actual timeline table next to proposed timeline.

Advised to start working on the tent deployment system.
