Making the enclosure

System integration▪ Complete “peripheral” functionality▪ Turning functionality into features▪ Software backend to support features

11

What’s left?

▪ Refine design▪ Build it

Develop the UI▪ Integration of peripherals with UI▪ What will the astronaut see on the screen?

Actual path-finding

Satellite overlayMap the actual satellite image for more accurate information

How to make this

better?

Implement path-finding algorithm to get shortest & safest path

Hopping networkExpand the range by using other devices in the network
