Generally:
- Not seeing enough comparative analysis on why you're doing things
- JUSTIFY YOUR DESIGNS!!!!

Ignition Sequence:
- Like the picture
- Clearly show old vs new, it is not clear
- why old system sucks
Som architecture:
- way too many words on the first slide
- Can put most of this in speaker notes
Next Gen BPS slide
- Why different colors on labels? Not good
- randomly starts talking about CAN, never introduce it ahead of time (tell me what you need it for)
PeripheralSOM slide:
- Abbreviate your bullet points
- You can give the most basic ideas in the bullet points,
  and explain in the presentation itself
- no CAN preface
BPS leader Board
- Weird naming when you previously started with a psom slide
- Start with a leaderSOM and then talk about the leader's full functionality
- Good pictures though
- Again, clearly highlight what things are for
- Said "as I was talking about earlier" → You never introduce clearly what the components are in a digestible way
VoltTemp: Voltage
- WAY TOO MANY WORDS
- Font is tiny?
- Specific chips can be a appendix / speaker note
  - "The specific chip is xxx, and details are in the appendix"
- Good explanation from champers on why you're switching
VoltTemp: Temperature
- Good introductory technical explanation
- Again, too many words
- Speeding up trying to read everything - Make your life easier, put less words on the slides and use speaker notes and practice
BPS Debugging Board:
- Explanation about why debug board is needed was good
- Only slide where I really got a justification

Embedded-Sharepoint
- Good comparative analysis of HAL vs SPL
- Didn't tell me a ton of what ESHARE does though or really why
  - Tell me why having a common core is good
FreeRTOS:
- Somewhat of a comparative analysis, but could be clearer
- Could limit text a bit more, but voerall decent slide
- Don't need the "subpoints" just making them speaker notes
HAL Drivers Migration, Why?
- Telling me benefits - good
- Tell me the cons you've identified, and why they're acceptable
State of Charge Calculation
- Not too much text - good
State of Charge 2
- COMPARISON TABLE!!! GREAT!
- If you put kalman filter on here, people will ask question about it. Be prepared
Dynamic Drift / Error Correction
- way too much text
- Brought up why our particular system is special (charges and discharges during runtime) - emphasize this as a justification

Champers
- Good speed
- Nice, simple diagram/picture
- Too many words on VoltTemp slides
- Well explained
Lakshay
- Better speed
- Simplify syntax

Michael
- Good speed
- Simplify text... maybe add images
Kartik
- Explained well
Nathan
- Perfect table!
- Why Dynamic Drift / Error Correction WALL OF TEXT
- Good understanding of the topic
