For phase 6, the team has re-evaluated the risk assessment chart and made some changes. The team has decided to not add new risks but instead modify some risks. One of the major changes was that we decided to lower the importance of getting approval from EHS since we have gotten the clearance to use citronella oil for this project. The other change that we have made is the description for risk 18. We have decided to not go forward with Bluetooth but instead go for a WIFI solution. This was mainly decided because Bluetooth mesh has a lot of requirements and permissions needed to use it. We decided it's not worth to learn and get around all those permissions but rather go with WIFI to show a proof of concept. The other change that we decided to change was risk ID 11, "Limited knowledge of app development and fluids". As we move along with our semester and the phases more work is being done. It's not a huge a blocker as it was previously as we are constantly learning about these new features. It was lowered to a value of 3 importance from 9. The changes to the risk assessment led the total importance value to be lowered by 14 from the previous phase. A chart with the importance vs the number of risks is shown at the bottom. It shows how the importance and the number of risks changed over each phase. The team ran into a problem this phase with the valve that was designed didn't exactly fit and had an issue with the threading. Our intention is to modify the valve or the pole of the torch to compensate. The other problem of note that the team has faced is being able to test all the electrical components since we are still waiting on things to be completed. This could lead to problems with subsystem integration in the next phaseRisk Assessment
