What Are We Working On?

In addition to working on our bots and programming, some of our team members have been learning how to use Creo, a digital modeling program, by watching YouTube tutorials.  One of our goals with the program is to design a part that both of our teams can use on their robot and get it 3-D printed.

After completely stripping their robot of wiring two meetings ago, team 452, PHI Alpha, was struggling to finish their robot so the software people could start programming.

As for PHI Omega, currently we are building shielding for our robot, programming, and adding other finishing touches.

Kickoff Meeting

We began the new robotics season last month with a kickoff meeting/potluck.  We demolished old prototypes, sorted parts, set up the foam field tiles, watched the game video, and discussed strategies for building this year's robots.  All said, we're excited for the new season!
