** Test the compass sensors
* Tasks
*** Do the compass sensors interfere with each other? '''DUE''' Monday 8pm
** Compass Sensor Interference Test
*** Do different compass sensors have slight miscalibrations? '''DUE''' Monday 8pm
*** Due Date:  Monday at 8pm
* Here is the format in which the data gathered by the bot will be stored, (Sensor ID 1, Sensor ID 2, Sensor ID 3, Sensor ID 4, Room ID, X position, Y position, Time Stamp, Expected Value 1, Expected Value 2, Expected Value 3, Expected Value 4, Actual Value 1, Actual Value 2, Actual Value 3, Actual Value 4)
*** Owner(s):  Aaron, Nick C, Dylan, Brad, Gil
* Brad will be making a python function that takes this input and compiles it into the CSV format
*** Purpose:  Do compass sensors interfere with each other when placed close together?
** Compass Sensor Calibration Test
*** Due Date:  Monday at 8pm
*** Owner(s):  Aaron, Nick C, Dylan, Brad, Gil
*** Purpose:  Do compass sensors calibrate differently?  Are some more likely to miscalibrate?

*** Results
**** D128 - 22 x 28 (EW x NS)
**** D129 -
**** D124 - 24 x 28 (EW x NS)
** Mark off origin, quadrants, and regular periodic difference, as well as "unreadable" tiles, i.e. ones with something immovable on them

* Data Collection - Michael, Tristan, Gil
* Next MeetingTuesday at 8am
** Idea for workload distribution: Teams of 2; one to move the bot around, the other to move tables around and run the script. There should also be a person from the software track present to do any emergency debugging.
* Tasks
** Gil will check whether compasses can be used near each other Saturday evening.
