  1. i-heliostat6/14 update Amy Whitcombe, Kendall Pletcher, Eric Kolker, Kiefer Hicks

  2. Progress • Preliminary Tx and Rx code is being written • Harvey’s Hardware • Amazon cart is ready for approval • Webcam - $47 • Laser modules – 2 @ $7 • Lens kit - $18 • Research into the mirrors Jeff pointed us to • $250 • 700nm – 10μm (Red to IR) is not good for sunlight • Should we (try to) build our own? • Photodiode research

  3. Next • Continue code development • Sync the Tx and Rx code, establish a link • Build a corner cube • Order parts! • More investigation into photodiode-based system while we wait on shipping

  4. Tx Demo

  5. Updated PERT Chart
