Prior to the experimentation on Sunday, Ian researched a method to automatically take voltage and current measurements for the solar panel experiment. With only an original Raspberry Pi Model B and an Arduino DUE on hand, a method was researched to access the DUE's ADC ports through the Pi. This specific Arduino has no EEPROM however, making the method impossible without modification. With limited time before testing day, it was decided to just do the measurements by hand.
Tables were created the night before Sunday to save time in recording the results. These are shown below. The completed tables with results can be found in the group progress log for Week 6.
A rough outline of the engineering specifications was also updated to the website so that critique and instruction for further improvements could be received in the upcoming weekly meeting. The current engineering specs sheet can be found under the "Design Proposal" section of the website.
