Meeting 2

11/15/14

Team Meeting @ University Crossing 1PM

All members were in attendance.

Team Name: R2 Doweknow?

During the meeting we further discussed our project ideas.  We've decided that we wish to program our Arduino to physically draw on a piece of paper.  As of now, we understand that at least one or more stepper motors will be required, most likely potentiometer(s), and lever arms to hold a drawing utensil will need to be created by printing and cutting or by utilizing make-shift parts. After searching the web, we came across these two websites that relate to our project idea:

1.   http://makezine.com/projects/circle-a-sketch/

2.   https://www.marginallyclever.com/blog/2013/08/how-to-build-an-2-axis-arduino-cnc-gcode-interpreter/

Things to do next week:

-start to physically experiment with the arduino in context to our research and project idea

-ask Prof. Sullivan about stepper motor availability

-

Things to clarify:

-project specifications

-due date

Next meeting: Wednesday November 19, 2014 @ 4PM in Lydon or Ucrossing
