GET TO WORK!!

We must GET TO WORK!

List below (do in this order):

 * Soldering:
    - Solder motor wire to new motors (AFTER TESTING WITH 6 VOLT BATTERY!!)
    - Solder the four capacitors to each motor
    - Solder the motor wire to the fuse box (or other method of connection)
    - Any other soldering (excl. Arduino Pro Mini and Cian's Personal Junk)

 * Fuse Box:
     - Wire it to motors (if not previously done)
     - Wire it to main battery (which will be via the switch)
     - Secure to CMDoverwatch (using screws)
     - Place fuses into the fuse box
     - Finalise any other wiring that needs to be done
     - Wire the Motor H-Bridge to the Fuse box (for operation)
     - Check all connections are correct
     - Check again!!
     - Check Again!!!

 * Cover:
     - Wire all the LEDs in Parrallel (Cian can do this while Tom is soldering other stuff)
     - Check LEDs are working using the 3v0 battery pack
     - Connect all the GNDs to the GND on the Gertboard using jumper straps
     - Jumper to Gertboard / Raspberry Pi GPIO pins
     - Write down where each goes
     - Check
     - Check Again!!

 * Software:
 Most of this can be completed in the study period durring P2 on Thursday by Cian and Tom

    - TCP Server with GPIO:
        ~ Include all the GPIO pins that are connected and turn on when we want them on.
        ~ Decode 'msg' so that we can see what the data is and then use that to determine when the Brake light is to come on.
        ~ Test the program using the GB and Raspberry Pi.
        ~ Fix any mistakes and then evaluate whether or not it is viable

    - Wireless AP setup.
        ~ I've done this a few times before.  It takes about 5 minutes to install and config software and then 10 minutes to set up.  Cian will take care of this one. :D

    - Visual Studio Application
        ~ I think we are pritty much done there.  Just tidy up and make it lighter on the RAM.

Once all of this is completed move onto testing ... NEXT ISSUE!!

Started some parts but further development must be halted until we have a 
strong and simple software connection method!

You mean mix the wireless infrastructure...
