Write problem statement
Improve upon the construted Robotic Arm and find some way to introduce mechanics into operation of the robotic arm.

Assign Task1
Brainstorm ideas on how to improve the robotic arm and discusss them with the team.

Compare actual work done to Task1
Decided to make separate version own robotic arm with a different end effect to compare with that of the old version so we can make improvements.

Week1 Narrative
Upload photos to wikimedia. Upload video to youtube. Convert all spreadsheets, documents, and presentations to wiki format and create wiki subpage of your page for each of them. Link to them here in a narrative that tells a story. High light the problems (engineering problems) you had and how you solved them.

Week1 Peer Review
Links To Week 1 Peer Reviews 



Assign Task2
Continue to work on constructing a new robotic arm for comparison.

Compare actual work done to Task2
Rationalize differences

Week2 Narrative
