-# Shield PCB
-This PCB is designed to simlpify the assembly and re-assemmbly of the quads, as well as the reliability.
-It does so by providing dedicated connections to each external device on separate, latching connectors.
+# Zybo PCB Shield
+The creation of the custom PCB shield was inspired by a fateful crash during one of MicroCART's demos for the 2018 ECpE Scholar's Fair. Multiple connectors were disconnected by the impact of the crash and the MicroCART team (who had just begun the project and were not familiar with the hardware setup) needed to find the issue quickly and resume demos. The creation of the PCB is intended to spare future groups from this particular set of hardware problems.
+
+The PCB is meant to act as a custom shield for the Zybo boards mounted on the quads. It serves 3 main functions:
+1.  Simplify quad hardware assmebly and secure connections to external devices (sensors, wifi bridge, motors, etc) using latching connectors.
+2.  Provide multiple test points where the user can probe for signals even when the quad is in operation.
+3.  Incorporate a voltage regulator to step the battery voltage down while also saving power and maintaining consistent output voltages.
