This week, our team focused more on our work, so we didn't necessarily meet any new people at NNSS.

I felt like a huge insight that I didn't really notice until now is the idea of a 9-5 work schedule. Personally, I am a big fan of the way DASL does it work hours, being whenever you come in and show your work. Because to me, it doesn't feel like work half the time because it slightly motivates me to come in, since I don't a schedule to follow through

For this week, a huge lesson that was made even more clear for me is that I need to start thinking as team. It's typically quite hard for me to work in a team because of my reliance towards other people, but something I didn't quite consider

For this week, I am collaborating with Nathan in combining the real-world lidar data with my URDF model in RVIZ, so they can be in sync with one another. Honestly, it is one of the easier projects I was assigned in, but sometimes it doesn't make sense on why we have certain problems because logically, it would create a clear chain, or linked-list structure in the xml code, but RVIZ would say otherwise. So, while it is one of the easier projects, it is also one of the more confusing ones.
