Week 4 Update 2020

Hey everyone!

The fourth week of build season is over! This was a rough week for us, and we ran into a lot of trouble moving forward with our mechanisms, ordering parts, and putting things together, but the robot is nevertheless finally starting to take shape.

We’ve worked on finalizing designs that were previously having issues, making sure individual parts of the robot are working, and putting the pieces together. Wiring is also largely complete, and our programmers have started coding.

   

At the beginning of the week, we mapped the robot’s layout.

Now, seven days later, our robot is starting to look like it will actually be able to play the game.

This upcoming week, we hope to put all mechanisms on the robot and attach the electronics.

Our meetings are open, as always, if you want to come see us work, and we’re still looking for support to get to competition!
