Tasks Completed:

• position of battery on robot is determined.
• USB mouse investigated.  Detector output signals defined.  Programming subteam believes they can interpret these signals.

Tasks In Progress:

• Better figure out electrical interface to mouse.  Define electrical interface to other style mice if USB mouse turns out to be too difficult.
• Possibly position cRIO setting on cross rail of robot behind battery? Requires ribbon cable (25-pin) to remotely locate module that plugs into cRIO module (due to limited height).

Tasks to Complete:

• determine position of circuit breaker panel on the robot.
• mechanical needs to build support housing for battery.
