Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
Risk reduction prototype and testing is finished. Initial design does not completely reflect the CAD model due to lack of parts.
Accomplishments from Previous Week
Assembled risk reduction prototype design for brushing system including pulleys and belts.
Verified that brush can make a full revolution.
Verified that noise and friction are not as much of a concern as previously thought.
Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.
Buy or manufacture the needed parts to assemble the redesigned prototype.
Research the mechanism needed to raise the arm or leg into place, David has suggested using a laboratory jack.
Purchase the researched mechanism (possibly).
