Thesis Project Update #1!

So I've decided to do my thesis project on Automatic Pool Cleaner. Incase you are not familiar with auto pool cleaners that are the machines that crawls at the bottom of swimming pools sucking up dirt and leafs. As of now I am working closely with Seth (manager R&D) at AquaProducts in designing a new more user friendly Robotic Pool Cleaner.
So far I have done research regarding the different types of cleaner and common pool problems. I am doing research on biomimicry and infield interview right now. I went to two Leslie's pool and spa store last weekend in Indianpolis, the store clerks were very helpful. Hopefully that will be completed this week. Having a history paper due in oneweeks does not help at all... here is my planned schedule for this project.So far I have done research regarding the different types of cleaner and common pool problems.
