Weekly Update: January 29, 2017

This week was our first week back from Winter Break and of our Spring Senior semester!

We ordered the majority of the remaining parts needed for the construction of our device. This includes the Peltier System, heat sinks, knobs, dials, industrial aluminum foil, temperature sensors, vibration coin motors, and FSR pressure sensors. The remaining big ticket item left to research and purchase is the battery/power supply. We hope to solidify this purchase by the next weekly update.

Additionally,  we ripped the seams of the pockets in the previously purchased weighted vest, as seen below.

We plan on assembling the pressure system and starting to plan the assembly of the vibration and temperature components in the near future.
