Today we met with Paul Welsh and another tech support women Reah Mondares and finally connected my computer to the secret wifi HAL9000 so now my computer should be able to automatically connect to this network when i'm in the tech office. We also worked on coding the raspberry pi so that we could put it in the rain forest and once it has power it will connect to HAL9000 and transmit data to my computer. After talking with Reah Mondares she said we have to request to get the HAL9000 wifi to the router closest to the rain forest and they will set it up. I wasn't able to code directly on to my computer so we had to set up the other monitor and connect it to the raspberry pi again. Another difficulty with coding was that we had to use a separate keyboard and this was a tyical American keyboard, but the raspberry pi is a European product set up to acknowledge a European keyboard, so some of the symbols I needed were not the keys with that symbol. So I had to get a map of a European keyboard to figure out which buttons give which symbols. Now we are on the right track to be able to transit data from the rainforest to the high school. I think if we can get the HAL9000 to the rainforest we should also be able to get it to Mrs.Began's room if she wants it.
