Week 14: 11/14 - 11/18
Describe highlights from the week, including major milestones and events
Last week, I continued researching different kinds of mini quadrupeds. For fun, I also researched the different types of robots that were successful in the DARPA awards. I found several different kinds of robots that were really interesting. This week I will look into these designs more and look into trying to 3D print some of them. Some of my more favorite designs are linked below.

Summarize tasks completed, emphasizing what was achieved
I found some very useful robots (as linked above) and I am very excited to start 3D printing one of the designs. I learned a lot about the robots height off of the ground, length of legs, and I began reading up dynamics. Next week, I will 3D the third link listed and finish researching.
Explain challenges encountered and the actions you took to address them
I am still waiting for the new parts to arrive but besides that my project is going well. It's a little slower moving than I hoped but it'll be worth it in the end when it works.
