+    * Continued exploring Unity
+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.
+         → Began connecting Unity/ROS - SLAM for robot navigation
+    * Set up remote desktop on orbit node for Unity
+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.
