1/9/2014 Day 5: Integration

Today was a bit of a slow down day, just to ensure everyone is on the same pages and the different mechanisms are still compatible with each other.  Instead of continuing the preliminary design phase for each of the individual mechanisms, we went back to the conceptual design phase for the robot and it as a whole, something we hadn't done yet.  After spending the day in small groups and conceptualizing, the general wants were all the same, a roller intake, a shooter/catapult, and a fold-out catcher.  This meeting, again, was primarily for getting the group on the same page, and was beginning to mark the end of the conceptual design process.

Approximate times of working: 4:00 PM -7:30 PM
