On March 21st, our team decided to use a wireless Bluetooth keypad for testing purposes to control the Robot. The keypad mapped specific buttons to delegate the direction of the robot such as forward, reverse, left, right, as well. Buttons were also mapped in order to stop the robot as well as control the collection system. The key mapping code was written in python, by team member Justin,  to control the direction of the motors. Once the coding for the robot was completed, Justin and Dean moved on to the wiring of the Raspberry Pi 3 to the motors. Team Members Hamza and Harris was delegated to wire up the battery and ensure all connections are secured. Team Member Dean was in charge of soldering the wires and the team as a whole double checked all wiring connections to ensure they were secure.
