Update for the week of Jan 25-31, 2015

On Tuesday we met with Navid and talked more about our current situation:

– Our design was in the progress of being built

– PCB designs were on the way

– Parts about to buy

– Presentation

On Thursday we obtained our platform from the machine shop, we did some further processing to the platform so that the center will bend more. Instead of four long sticks laminated to the sides we cut off some materials so that only the corners will support the upper base.

On Saturday we met up and worked on the calibration of the load cell, we found the load cell to generate a signal when force is applied to the base, we might be adding an extra amplifier in order to obtain a better signal.
