====== Weatherbox Challenge Roadmap ======

A gantt chart is posted in the leadership folder.


===== Early Stages =====
  * eagle tutorials
  * soldering tutorials
  * processor tutorials
  * git tutorials
  * understand the importance of modular code 

===== Getting Individual Parts Working =====
  * get microprocessor working
    * know how to reprogram it
    * blink program
  * get each sensor working (4 total)
    * write individual firmware modules (use pre-existing libraries)
    * test sensors on breadboard, verify firmware
  * get XBee working
    * write XBee modules (library)
    * test on breadboard, verify firmware
  * get charging circuit working
    * test with solar panel and lamp

===== Putting It All Together =====
  * wire everything together on breadboard
  * verify hardware design
  * integrate firmware modules into a main program
  * verify firmware
  * design PCB
  * print PCB
  * solder parts
  * debug hardware
  * load firmware and debug system

===== Along the Way =====
  * design housing
  * create bill of materials
  * create a power budget
  * other analysis?
  * presentations
  * final report
