Week 3

This week's accomplishments:
- Group received SeaPerch kit. This was a crucial step forward in that now the group was actually vaguely aware of what they were working with and allowed actual designing to take place.
- Group assembled SeaPerch kit. This again, was a crucial step forward in that now the group could actually get a handle on what they were working with.
- Designing began.

Design so far for the SeaPerch. The two motors are mounted on the ends of a center pole, which rotates. This rotation allows these two motors to move the submersible ahead, astern, up, or down more quickly than a single motor would. How to make this pole rotate has yet to be determined.


- Some website updates happened.

Next week's goals:
