    • Isaiah/Kayla/Isaiah/Jerryx3
  • Two mini presentations
  • Acoustic:
    • Progress:
      • Real time processing algorithm
      • Several indoor tests
      • Experimented accuracy with different means of linearizing data
      • Start implementation of direction determination
    • Problems:
      • Syntax - silly Scott
      • Innaccuracies
