Retrospective 1.5
- What went well?
I managed to install Raspbian. I understood the difference and functionality of different SD Card formatting tools, I managed to update Raspbian and all the libraries included.
I learned how to assign a static IP address to a device, through my router. I learned how to control remotely a raspberry using VNC.
- What could be better?
I did the testing of the servo motors while they were attached to the wooden platform, because I didn’t have set the angle diapason of the rotation one of the motors broke the wooden part of the installation. Because I was lagging with my progress I decided to proceed to the Raspberry part of the project.
- What should be better?
I should have spent extra time to lazer-cut a new platform for the prototype, which will be more stable and durable. I should have dedicated one full day for the Raspbian and VCN installation, instead I did it in several days and that led to mistakes, simply because I missed several steps during the installation process.
