Shape Up or Ship Out

It's the end of week one and our robot is looking good. Our drive train has been finished and we are pretty happy with the results. Looking at our competition, we feel pretty confident in what we've accomplished and are almost certain to beat out the rest. Starting next week, we will be in place to program our robot and see just how well our idea works and make any tweaks or modifications before game day.

Starting Off

Today was the first day of building robots this year in engineering. Our groups are chosen and we are developing the design of our robot. Getting parts was an all out war and we will have to make due with what we got. This week we aim to have our robot done and ready for programming on Tuesday. With no school on Monday, and the elimination bracket starting Thursday morning, we have to meet a tight deadline to get our robot ready. Now we start the process of taking inventory.
