This document outlines 6 tasks for the electrical sub-team of project MECH-498. The tasks include: 1) finalizing specifications, 2) finishing prototyping of handling timer events, 3) finishing motor control prototyping, 4) finishing data collection prototyping including wireless communication, master-slave setup, and FPGA hardware design, 5) finalizing sensor suites through testing, and 6) integrating fail-safes to mitigate risks if the main MCU fails. The document provides details on the electrical sub-team activities and tasks led by Jacob Stinson.

1) Finalize specs, such as the number of telemetry lines we have, the video camera resolution we need for successful stereovision, etc. 2) Finish prototyping of handling timer events 3) Finishing prototyping of motor control 4) Finish prototyping of data collection. This includes: a. Prototyping possible wifi communication to avoid data lines through slip ring b. Master-Slave setup between main MCU and secondary MCU c. Hardware design of FPGA for data processing 5) Finalize sensor suites through testing accel/gyros and stereovision with boom/solar panel 6) Integrate some fail-safes to mitage the risk of our system failing if the main MCU fails
