plan for autonomous driving

- Do push tests to record the motions of the graphs, and see trends of motion
- use footage of curving road
-have to do the math of what the camera can see based on model

Making simple circuits

The one mistake that I made in making a simple LED circuit is that I put the wires in the wrong column so that they wouldn't connect to what else was in the column. I had to move the wires over (from negative to positive and positive to negative). By connecting the batteries to the wires, keeping in mind the polarity of the LED, I got the LED to light up. The plan from this point is to create some more simple circuits and become more comfortable with creating circuits to eventually create more complicated circuits.

Common mistakes when using a breadboard

1. Not connecting wires in the correct rows. Rows are electrically interconnected so if you put the wires across different rows then they won't be connected.
2. If the wires are loose then the circuit won't have maximum functionality.
3. Some components have polarity and the direction they are connected to the breadboard matters. For example an LED has two different leg lengths; the longer leg represents the positive side and has to be connected to the battery pack's red lead, and the shorter leg represents the negative side and has to be connected to the battery pack's black lead. A resistor does not have polarity.
4. Be wary of different jumper cables; the different amount of lengths the more compact and organized the circuit.
