Week 12: Apr 10 - Apr 16
If everything is up and running, think of something that I can add to the program since I have two extra motors. I was thinking
maybe make it mountable so that not only the camera can move up and down, left and right, but have a contraption that will
also raise and lower that whole device, so instead of having the camera point upward towards you, have the camera actually move
upward and downward to get to a better position of where your face actually is. This sounds like it would work and be a good idea but this is
completely dependent on my timing. I should also start my presentation outline.
