The third week of the build season is over. It’s a scary thought but I guess it’s true… there are only three weeks left. Yikes!
We’ve taken advantage of our four day weekend and had longer meetings on Thursday and Friday. We have finished CADing the drive system and are currently working on the wheels. The mechanical team has finished their second prototype and the wheels are now attached to the robot frame. The electrical sub-team has started to make the electrical board, deciding to make more of a “filing cabinet” for better organization.
Code for the shooting mechanism and roller system are completed and our programming team’s newest challenge is trying to figure out the camera. Our website design is almost final and we are just tweaking the colors to have the coolest-looking website ever. Several members of our team have been working on our Marketing and Safety Binder and other members met early Friday morning to work on the Dean’s List and Chairmans Award.
It doesn’t seem real that we’re halfway through the build season already, but as the days go by the excitement seems to grow and we are looking forward to the next few weeks.
