 ===== Week 5 =====
 ==== New Person ====
+This week, I took a machine shop safety training program in order to gain access to the machine shop. The trainer is Patrick Callahan, who is an engineering technician at Tesla's factory. Patrick demonstrated the safety procedures for properly using various machines available within the shop. I am very grateful for the helps that he provided whenever I am having trouble within the machine shop. In addition, I met with John Holup, Trevor McGough, Keita Nishiyama from Gexcel. They met with me and another team members to demonstrate their mobile laser scanner.

 ==== Project Status ====
+{{ :yuhang:tesla:laser_scanner_mount.png?300 |}}
+I finished the design for the laser scanner mount. I created a Bill of Material for the mount and I am currently waiting for it to be approved. The mount includes an attachment to mount the scanner on the Spot and a roll cage that will be used to protect the scanner in case of a fall.
+I joined a tech demo from Gexcel that demonstrated their Heron Wearable Mobile Mapping solution. I was able to wear their laser scanner attached to backpack strap and walk around the office area to test their scanner. The mobile scanner collected a good amount of data during the short time I wore it. The scanner could potentially be mounted on Spot and used to scan the factory floor while Spot is in locomotion.
 ==== Project Agenda ====
+In preparation for Spot's arrival next week, I started working on writing a Desktop Dashboard for Spot. Similar to the GUI that was used for DRC-Hubo, the GUI for Spot will be built from Qt, which has the advantage of having multiplatform compatibility. I imagine that similar to DRC-Hubo, this GUI can be used as the base from which future programs for Spot can be build on top of.
