In the past month, we have achieved a lot, despite classes and exams heating up.
We have been finishing up some work outside the lab. One thing we've been working on is figuring out how we plan to test our Exoskeleton. Some of our time has been spent coming up with procedures for every step of how we plan to test it. We want to be thorough. We have also started using the funding we gained through donations to order parts. We've been ordering what we need to assemble a simple proof-of concept of our design. Let's call this Mk 0. We've also ordered some 3D prints from terrapin works of our spring housing, as well as picking and ordering springs. After we got set up in the lab and took inventory, we've gotten to work on some things. We've started creating some more parts for our Mk 0, creating some parts for the cable housing, as well as a shoulder/chest strap subsystem. We have also started doing elasticity testing with some elastic bands, and plan to continue this with our springs when they come in. Overall, we have been making progress and been successful. We expect this progress to slow down in about a week from now for finals, and to be slow over the summer, but ultimately we consider this semester to have been a good start on our project. We will post one more update at the end of the semester.
