We chose to our location at Columbus park, due to the multiple pathways and decent foot traffic. We measured a pathway, which ended up being 10 x 108 feet. We have completed the software for the motion sensor LEDs, and we are finishing up the hardware for the LEDs. We also completed the bell system on our prototype. We hope to complete our prototype tomorrow.

For our critique, we were told by the coaches to look more at other options, such as changing the shape of our arches. We were also told to explore more with using our precedent to shape our project's future. They told us our process has been pretty linear as well.

Once we finalize this prototype tomorrow, we will work on incorporating some or all of that feedback into our final design. I think some changes could be made that would really improve the flow and style of our project.

Today, we worked on switching over to pentagons to improve the look of the rotation of our installation. We also worked with creating our half scale model for the end of the week. We hope to use triple layers to secure our frame. We also will use L brackets to attach it securely to the ground.
