On the final steps...

This past week our mini group has met with the model that is going to be wearing our cross, Filip is about my height so the cross fit him just fine and he was comfortable moving around in it. There are some adjustments to one of the straps we have to make and finish the bracing that will hold on the LED board along with brackets to hold the panels in place. Ali and co. have figured out the power situation so everything should go together and we should a fully operational Deathstar backpack capable of conveying information visually and aurally. I snapped some pics of the progress we have made and here we go!

Just the cross, the paint not so bright... :(

Closer view of one panel..oooh! bright!

The final product..now to just get them all attached!

So that pretty much covers what has happened this past week. I've been gearing rumors of videos being completed so I am going to post up links to those as soon as I can find out more about what is going on with that part of the project.
