Week 5 Progress Report

This week, we began our implementing new design. This design relies on the use of demultiplexers and digital flip flops. In this way, it is possible to have outputs, which preserve their state. This allows us to simplify the logic significantly; however, this has some downsides. Since we are only changing the state of one output at a time, this will cause some lag when more than one output has to be changed at a time. Hopefully, the Arduino will be able to change the outputs quickly enough that the lag will not be noticable to the human eye. We also wrote the procedure in order to create the PDLCD material during the next week.
