Write problem/project Goal
First weekend goal is to find all areas where old Core Control projects succeeded and failed. By looking at them on the G-drive.

My First Task
This first weekend, I will become an expert on all previous core control projects at HCC, using the files from the g-drive. I will also research the basic history and science of core control and post my findings to the CoreControl wikiversity page for the world to see.

Summary of actual work over first weekend
My research was not that wide on previous projects because there were only two on the g-drive. They were also both done by the same group over two project times. Both projects failed at the same point, the seal. I felt that more research was nessecarry to find what the background of core control is so I looked at there own page and user testimonials on various websites.

Week1 Narrative
I found all old pictures and previous projects done at HCC on Core Control. I read through all their projects and found differnt ways to build the vacuum chamber. All previous project on the g-drive failed at the same point, the seal.Although I also feel that there is going to be a problem with the constant pressure of a vacuum seal. Going to find if that is the actual way core control works, or if there is a machine that turns on and off, and why it does that.

My Second Task
Find the particular patent and further find what the science is behind the Core Control unit.

Summary of actual work over second weekend
Was able to find the patent related to core control here

However, the images in patents are all in TIFF g4 format and cannot be viewed on a PC until a proper plug in is installed so I had to sway off to installing that and created a tutorial on how to do that.

Week2 Narrative
On Saturday, I called my aunt who is a patent attorney, to be able to access the entire patent I found on core control. Once I was able to read the patent I looked more into the actual science behind it and that the blood flow is affected by vasodialation and vasoconstriction. The widening and narrowing of the blood vessels.

My Third task
Find all the neccesary remaining materials to be able to build the Core Control unit by the last week.

Summary of actual work over third weekend
Wasn't able to attain all items, so the project wasn't fully completed. Plus when I was trying to stretch the rubber glove over the seal it ripped. A different glove is required for sealing the unit. Overall though the majority of the unit is now built. Water pump tested and circulates.

Week3 Narrative
All materials were organized and the core control unit was assembled. I took some pictures of the build.

My Fourth task
Find glove ideas while we wait for our final parts to come in and finish the build of core control.

Summary of actual work over fourth weekend
How is what you did different than what you planned?

Week4 Narrative
Tell a detailed story describing what you did for your team over the weekend.
