• Calendar email responses
  • Calendar email responses will have the same deadline as emails- 24 hours!
  • You can use the “maybe” option
  • Make sure you are responding to your personal calendar- not the SCEL one
• Open food on table
  • Please do not leave food or drinks open in the lab
  • We will get ants…
• Using the water pot heater
  • Please empty excess water from the pot if you use it

• Put numbers on slides so it is easier to reference
• Use less distracting pictures on slides
• Hardware teams should include block diagrams
• Less laughter
• Do not stick your hands in your pockets or cover them with your sleeves
• Find a good balance between text and pictures on slides- try to avoid slides with all text
• Use bullet points

• Dragonfruit Design Team
  • Focus on getting a working board
• Cranberry Design Team
  • Make an outline of steps to complete when debugging Cranberry
• Apple Design Team
  • Remote programming = wireless programming
  • Better to say implement data routing instead of “implement parent module data”
  • Split up tasks between members- programming and hardware
    • Can ask Cranberry and Dragonfruit teams for help
• Verification Team
  • Unit testing of Apple board to ensure hardware is working properly
  • Think about how boards will work with software
• Firmware Team
  • Difference between Git and GitHub
  • No SPI for XBee
  • Look at Apple repo
    • Libraries and how to get sensor readings
• XBee Team
  • Collaborate with other teams
  • Create a test plan
    • Find range between two XBees in the real world
    • Allow for variances and find them
• Server Team
  • Create a block diagram of the server translator
  • Collaborate with firmware team on Git/GitHub stuff
• Wind Sensor Team
  • Reason for no moving parts on the wind sensor:
    • Facilities will not allow us to have moving parts on the roof
    • Moving parts can also break and do not last as long as stationary parts
• Forecasting Team
  • Dr. Kuh's task: Least squares programming
  • UC Irvine machine learning repo and Kaggle
    • Regression least squares- did previously in MATLAB
    • Can do in R, MATLAB, Python
      • Everyone on the team must write it in the same language
      • Backend in R and display in iPython
    • Can also get data from Kenny
