"faq":"### Do we have to design new boards for this?\nAnswer: No. You can use the gestalt or other existing commercial boards.\n### I'm the only student in the lab, can I complete the assignment by building the machine alone?\nAnswer: No. You need to collaborate with someone. This is a team effort.\n### What is the recommended size of the team?\nAnswer: Optimal size of the group is three to five students per machine building project.\n### Can we use off-the-shelf software?\nAnswer: Yes."
