This month we have combined all of the design groups and are now working on our most advanced prototype yet. Programmers have gotten an LCD screen to work with a raspberry pi and are currently working to get the thermal camera functioning and to interface a button on the tick detector. Design has started to work on getting the right brush for the pet and also advancing their case designs. 

Getting the thermal tamera to work

Research has been looking into patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Communications has been working to prepare for our Mid-Grant Review, we have been designing a flyer and writing the email invite. To design the flyer we looked at a past InvenTeam that was from our school and took inspiration from the format. We have also met with a professional who writes press releases to help us learn more about the subject.

Mid-Grant Review Flyer

Right now our InvenTeam is looking toward our Mid-Grant Review and as we are preparing our presentation. All the teams are coming together and compiling all of their work into presentation slides. Each team is responsible for its own slides.

We have been making progress faster than ever right now and we are looking forward to what we will achieve in the coming months.
