This week we successfully scaled down our initial project idea for a quadcopter to a more feasible product idea of an Arduino controlled 2-axis gimbal on a bike-mounted platform. As opposed to using an IMU, we decided to use two magnetic rotary encoders to challenge ourselves in the realm of electrical and systems engineering. Additionally, we finalized a project proposal after making some intensive revisions and created a detailed budget.

We have conducted initial research concerning the connection of the rotary magnetic encoders to the Arduino.

We completed a first design rendering for our stabilization platform; it is in the very early stages of development. Parts1.png Assembly1.png
