What an informative website. I particularly felt that the video helped show all the steps taken along the way. Great work!
Awesome job! Great sketches and they did a good job documenting the process and outcome.
First… I loved the name of the team:) , the presentation was well thought out. I liked the diagrams and it was thorough.
You guys did such a great job! Love the sketches that you did to plan out the work.
Very nice documentation with all the sketches and photos.
