Build Season - Week 3 - We're Halfway There

1/28/2023

0 Comments

 

    Hello, this is Q Branch, logging in to tell YOU about our third week of build season. This week we’ve been busy at work with our Mechanics subteam finalizing the parts for the robot. We’ve made our intake, bumpers, grabber, an elevator, our electronics and pneumatics boards, and our final chassis, and with all these parts made, our Controls subteam got straight to work. They’ve been working on our auton program, TeleOP controls, encoders, and programming everything while assigning the buttons. With our design coming to life, all our CAD subteam has to do is specify where the holes for support go. Along with this, our business subteam has been hard at work designing our pins and locker posters to showcase our team members, all the while interacting with our social media and continuing with our essay and essay questions.
  Much progress has been made this week and we plan to do even more now that we’re halfway through the build season. Mechanics and Controls will continue finalizing all the programming, parts and working out any kinks along the way. CAD will work out the support holes then help with implementing the digital work onto the actual robot and Business will continue to work on the essay. Be sure to keep up with our social media as we post frequent updates on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. See you next week and remember, “This is How We Robot.”

Build Season - Week 1 & 2

1/21/2023

    Hello, this is Q Branch logging in to tell YOU about our first and second week of build season. On Kick-Off Day, our team met to watch the challenge, model it with our human players, then utilize a QFD to determine our strategies and what parts to make for our robot. So far, our Mechanics and CAD team have been busy spending hours on prototyping and finalizing our elevator, intake and swerve drive. They are also currently constructing a base for the robot, along with bumpers. Our Controls team finished their swerve drive code and are working to modify it to fit our last year’s code. Now, what’s the Business team doing? Well, we’re documenting it all while working on the FIRST Impact essay and finishing drafting the essay questions.
We’ve made ample progress in these last two weeks, but there’s still a long way to go. We plan on finalizing construction on the elevator, grabber, and double arm rotation. The Controls will continue to work on Auton planning routines and Teleop controls, and the Business will move forth on the FIRST Impact essay. Do be sure to keep up with our social media as we post updates on our instagram and TikTok. We'll see you next week and remember, “This is How We Robot”.
