Progress and Reflection:

1. I worked on the Planning I Exercise
   It has been taking me so long. I have spent more hours than I expected in understanding the problem of the Collision Checker. Here is my understanding:
   – There will be a list of Placed Primitive Objects which are either (to be updated later)
   
   It also took me more time to figure out the solution to the problem.
   
2. I discussed the possibility of using duckietown’s environment for our specific use cases with Professor Diane.
   We will have to set up a meeting with the people from duckietown about integrating our own packages into duckietown.
   
3. I read some papers by searching online to learn the differences between motion planning and path planning
   
4. I started the Reinforcement Learning chapter of the edx course out of curiosity.
