Week Seven B

In the second half of the week, we continued to assemble the SeaPerch. We determined that the fuse was blown and replaced it with a new one. The motors, circuits, and control box are now functioning. Methods of attaching the depth sensor were discussed. However, we feel it is best to wait after testing it underwater so that the depth sensor can be used to strategically ballast the submersible. We are hoping to test the submersible in the pool at the end of this week.
