On the first day of ISR, I worked to move the small flight simulator from the Monitoring lab to the robotics lab. Doing this took slightly longer tha...
On Friday of this week, I learned how to create ethernet cables. I created three cables, tested and fixed each until they were successful, and then m...

This week, we started by introducing ourselves and our projects. We then moved to setting up the robotics area for our work this semester. I worked o...
On Monday this week, I spent a lot of the class listening to wand working with the projects already underway at the Energy Lab. I learned about the R...
On Wednesday this week, I moved the blowers from Dr. Bill's car down to the downstairs room. I tested out multiple blowers, and found that teh 8 inch...
On Friday this week, I began prototyping a method for transitioning the circular output of the blower into a square wind tunnel. I received an Ifixit...
This week, I worked mainly on the wind tunnel project. I started by moving the blowers down and performing tests on them for exhaust velocity. I deci...
On Tuesday this week, I used the Ifixit toolkit I was given to disassemble my laptop and clean it out. I then reassembled it. I spent the rest of the...
On Thursday this week, I continued to work on solving the Variac problem. I didn't get much of anywhere, as every Variac that I found instructions fo...
This week, I started working on an old Variac, in the hopes of using it to power my hot-wire foam cutter. So far, it's not looking great. The Variac ...
This week, I worked with multimeters, learned how to operate a multimeter to troubleshoot various pieces of electronics, and learned how to solder. I...
On Tuesday of this week, I continued performing the tasks related to using a multimeter. After doing the multimeter tasks, I worked on soldering. I l...
On Thursday of this week, I worked with understanding and learning Arduinos. Partly, I helped my classmates to do some of the early Arduino projects....
This week, I learned about Terminal commands, how to use them, and what to use them for. I learned about basic pinging and tracing commands, some eas...
On Wednesday this week, I worked with learning Terminal commands. I learned about the ping, nslookup, and traceroute(tracert) commands. I learned abou...
On Friday of this week, I learned about more terminal commands and some basic Mac repair. I learned about a file system check and what it does. I lea...
On Tuesday of this week, I learned about diagnosing wireless network issues, what can slow a network down, and how to fix it. I also discussed the id...
