v34 v35 136 136 **[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ArsCSh_88Yh-_FCZacON2jW-a4Mv5AKRFH3L4P8xQlQ/edit?usp=sharing Week 6 Presentation]** 137 137 138 * Continued exploring Unity 138 For Week Six, research was done on the topic of Precision Time Protocol (PTP). This is a protocol used to synchronize clocks throughout a computer network, in the group's case, individual Raspberry Pis with either sensors or cameras attached. This is a crucial factor for the project since the heart of the data collection process relies on connecting the sensor data to the camera input. 139 139 140 141 → Began connecting Unity/ROS - SLAM for robot navigation 142 143 * Set up remote desktop on orbit node for Unity 140 In addition, the group continued to look into utilizing Unity by creating an environment where Unity and ROS could connect. The first step was setting up a remote desktop on the orbit node at WINLAB. The end goal is to hopefully create a demo which integrates SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping). SLAM describes a robot attaining a certain degree of environmental awareness through the use of external sensors - and is one of the most studied areas in autonomous mobile robotics. 144 141 145 142 **WEEK SEVEN**
