Week 1: September 3rd- September 7th

1. Brainstorming ideas

- Inspired by the convenience of BIRD and LimeBike, we hoped to recreate this idea in a longboard rather than bikes and scooters

2. Decided on BOARDLOCK, envisioning a single-motor mappable electric longboard with manual locking ability (from iPhone)


Week 2: September 10th- September 14th

1. Max: Research/Acquiring materials (1.5 hours)

- Investigated optimal longboard size (33), best brushless motor, ESC, E-Longboard Assembly Kit, 2x Lipo Batteries

2. Sept 13: All three of us met with Jim and our TA to finalize our project idea (1 hour)

- We decided to focus on GPS and locking mechanism - Confirmed we want to use the GPS capability of Rasberry Pi -


Week 3: September 17th - September 21st
