September 9th
We had our first meeting and discussed our objective and what kind of features we would like to add. We talked about audio and light additions to the hardware portion of the project. We also watched a few videos about leap motion and virtual reality to get an idea of how our project will work and be formatted. We also set up our Slack accounts in order to communicate and set tasks through one app, as well as our Trello boards since we will be operating on Agile Methodology.

At this meeting we fine-tuned the Code of Conduct and decided officially on the team’s responsibilities for the project. All of that information and all of the specifics discussed in this meeting can be found in the Code of Conduct document.

This is when we decided on the software needs for the project. At this point we are leaning towards Unity for the development of the GUI. Additionally, as far as hardware goes, we are probably going to use the Arduino. We noted that we still have to solidify all of our individual tasks and responsibilities for the Needs Assessment.
September 30th
Today we finished the Needs Assessment and added the necessary changes to the document. We finally decided on each of our titles, roles, and individually as members of the project. This information can be found in our Needs Assessment. Everything that was decided in this meeting is in that document.

After meeting with Dr. Hooker we discussed responsibilities for the presentation and ho would speak about what. We decided that Adam would introduce and conclude the project while describing purpose and goals. Wil will talk about background and why this project is necessary and relevant. Jacob will talk about leap motion and the different sensors involved. Nicole will speak about Unity and the software design of the GUI.

Today two of our members were out of town so the meeting had to be postponed.
October 18th
We discussed the website and the different features we wanted to include before the submission date on Friday. Additionally, we are working on our Midterm Report, so we are currently sanctioning off responsibilities for that. We have successfully created the necessary charts and narrowed down the design and product specs. We are planning on creating a demo picture of the GUI and its functions to include in the paper as a visual by the due date.
