Week 2-3 Progress Update

During week two's lab, we decided on which motors we would use. We also came up with a few ideas of what we were going to use to actually construct our entire project and the logistics of how we would go about doing it. We decided that it would be best to use six motors; four of which would be used to go forward/backward as well as steer the submersible and the other other two which would be used to move the submersible up or down. We decided during out week three meeting that it would be best for us to forgo our previous idea of controlling the vertical (up/down) movement of the submersible which needed an air pump to perform the task. During this meeting, we also planned out and strategized our plan for the next couple of weeks which include attainment of materials and actual construction.
