Week 5: Presentation 1 & Design Changes Implementation (2/22/2018 - 2/28/2018)

Presentation 1 was done on February 21, 2018, Wednesday at Spartan Superway Design Center. After the presentation, Dr. Furman and the team had a further discussion on the design of the structure. He recommended the team a method which would help to achieve a spherical shape of solar panels supporting structure.

Two days before the presentation, the team has picked up some used solar panels from local solar installation company for a free of cost. The team has reached out to a dozen different companies and the Cinnamon Solar was one of the only ones that had picked up the phone call.More design changes have been implemented! The design has changed and evolved a great deal over the past month.  The team has been hard at work trying to figure out the most optimized geometry for the racking system.  The team has also been working on figuring out the required wiring elements for the solar panels.
