Meeting 9/15

All eleven members including myself showed up for our second meeting. We confirmed the structure of the group as Aaron Hoffman as Project Manager, Max Hill as Power and Propulsion manager , Michael Powers as sensors and codes manger, Tyler Burrage as Structure and Levitation Manager. Structure and Levitation is in charge for making the excel calculator and are almost done with it. We have started working on the presentation and have decided that the Project Manager and the Group Managers will speak. We have had good inter-group work and conversation. All suggestions are being considered. Right now we are looking at a hovercraft with a soft skirt and a base made of either light wood or styrofoam. The levitaton fan will be wired directly to the battery/batteries. We don't know if we will have 1 or 2 propulsion fans. One of the output signals will be used to hit the button to open the gate. Looks like we will be using infared sensors to track the black lines. We are planning on meeting again tomorrow 9/17.
