After we finished working with the led, we began learning how to program xbees. ​It took us the rest of the day to solve the problem.

 +Today, we continued programming the xbees. We were able to get an xbee to wirelessly send messages to the other xbee with the arduino. After we were able to accomplish that, we tried to get the two xbees to connect and send wirelessly with two arduinos. We programmed the xbee and arduino that sent the message and Skylar and Dane programmed the xbee and arduino that received the message.
 +
 +**Friday - 7/8/16**
 +
 +Today, we were able to finally get the two arduinos and xbees to work together. We programmed them to send packets back and forth. With the arrival of Andrew Obatake, the problem between the transferring of messages from one xbee to another was magically fixed. I am starting to think that Andrew is a wizard, because if 3 undergrad students and 4 summer interns were unable to fix it, yet this man was able to in less than 30 minutes, the only logical explanation must be that he is a wizard.
 +
 +**Monday - 7/11/16**
 +
 +We first built and programmed our own arduino game. The players that played our game would race to see who could press the button 20 times. When the player reached 20, the led would light up and The first person to reach 20 the fastest would win. Dane and Skylar built a memory game. After we finished our games, we started refreshing ourselves with lcd boards and current sensors by looking back on our previous circuit. We then continued to program our xbees. We started to program our xbee and arduino to display a message sent from Dane and Skylar'​s circuit. Our circuit would receive their message of current, power, and voltage. ​
 +
 +**Tuesday - 7/12/16**
 +
 +Today, we continued to program our circuits to receive Skylar and Dane's message. We were able to receive their payload and send a payload to them. We are continuing to work on sending and receiving voltage, current, and power. Dane and Skylar are working on sending all three of their messages to us. And we are working on deciphering which number is power, current, or voltage and displaying it on the lcd board.
 +
 +**Friday - 7/15/16**
 +
 +For today, we once again worked on the Arduino and the Xbee modules to have two Xbees and two Arduinos to communicate with each other. We had fought hard but with the dust settling and the sun setting, it almost seemed we were in a losing battle. However, with the surprise assistance of Mandrew Obatak-bae and Seyyed, we managed to somehow get the arudinos and xbees to work with each other and the battle was won in favor of team peacock.
 +
 +**Monday - 7/18/16**
 +
 +During the first half of today, we reviewed pre-calculus and began learning some calculus. Gordon was able to teach us about calculating secant and tangent lines. After our math lesson, we continued working on the xbees and arduinos.
 +
 +**Tuesday - 7/19/16**
 +
 +Today we started measure and designing a housing unit for our project. We were able to design our entire unit but we weren'​t able to print it out due to the time it would take. However, we were able to print out the wall piece of the unit but nothing else. After designing everything, we learned how to solder as our wall was printing out. We practiced soldering on resistors and boards.
 +
 +**Wednesday - 7/20/16**
 +
 +Today we are debugging the code to make it more efficient. We are struggling to do so at the moment. We also performed mock presentations to all our lab mentors and Dr. Anthony Kuh. We were given comment and ways to edit and fix up the presentation to make it better. We hope to be prepared for our presentations tomorrow and July 29.
