Day 2

Day 2.

Wednesday, 3:00pm.

So we have our idea, it's pretty solid. We drew out what the object will basically look like. We got all the parts we were going to need like lego pieces, platform material, and started the our solid works assembly.

The sensor we ordered came in and it actually works. Our money wasn't wasted. Hallelujah.
We tested out the sensor by equipping it to our audrino board and have it listen to music. It totally read out numbers. Really responsive, even snaps produce numbers. Our sensor isn't deaf. Success.

Professor Sully came by and got a little too excited with our project and totally started throwing down some programming codes. We got our sensor to listen to music and have an led light blink in correspondence to the music via codes. It was awesome.

We got the cone on solid works drawn. It'll be like a frame rather than a solid piece.
We can decorate and craft the perfect minature christmas tree with that and have it weigh practically nothhing. By having a frame instead of it being solid, it'll let us make the frame super big so we could have like a foot tall tree. Just what we need to make design lab worth while. A foot tall christmas tree.

Motto of the meeeting ajourned, Go big or go home.

Next meeting date: Friday@10am, 11/20/13

Meeting duration:  50 min
 I tried posting the video of the light blinking in conjunction with the music but there were some technical difficulties. Maybe in another post it'll work.
