====== Guava - Week of January 30, 2017 ====== **Attended: Tryston, Kaeo, Michael** ===== Updates ===== * Started the proposal slides * Doing research on the differences and similarities between the new chip and the old chip * Expand on the successes and try to correct the "missteps" of the Dragon Fruit * Chose Dragon Fruit because of the 5V * Thinking of that subgoal of demand response * Thinking of alternate uses of Guava such as an indoor sensor as well. * Maybe try to let it be used both inside and outside. * Created [[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19bsdk6LOiSNwjNMkftf-8zLHgMHaFEJPGG7D1TezZqY/edit#gid=0|Gantt Chart]] for the semester == "Projected" Goals == * Deployment might not be the end goal * Maybe a proof of concept to test the capabilities of the processor with its functionality === Design Choices of The Week === * Initially going with a 5V volts option over the 3V because of the use of the breakout sensors/parts * Research more of the pros and cons of using the 3V and 5V * Might incorporate a 3V and 5V design that works in tandem with each other * Implementation of different types of sensors not necessarily weather sensors, but something else * Going to keep the charging chip how it is. (SMD parts including breaking the big cap into smaller caps in parallel) ===== Issues ===== * Need Gantt Chart of Schedule before next week Thursday(RESOLVED) * Need to figure out the roles/duties - Team Lead Michael will show us the way * Figure out end goals for this project - TLM will show us the way for this as well ===== Reminders ===== * Proposal Presentations on Saturday, February 11th @ 9:00 AM @ iLab [[weatherbox:Guava:meeting_minutes|Back to Guava's Meeting Minutes]]
