Code Progress

Zengzi Li and Cheng Pang

The original code failed for some reason. The wiring was correct. There was something about the code. I tried to get only the photoresistor working yet still failed.

Mid review Feedback

Zengzi Li and Cheng Pang
  1. Focus more on Mechanical design, try to play with different combinations.
  2. Consider the shape of most greenhouses, most do not have a flat top
  3. Try to take it one step at a time, make one piece move first as compared to 4 pieces at the same time.
  4. Take the closing threshold into consideration, figure out at what lumen do the roof close and when it opens. 
  5. Consider incorporating a manual switch to open/close roof
