Hello everyone and welcome back! We will be at the student involvement fair on 9/1 at 1:00pm to hand out information. Hope to see you there! Also, please fill out the poll to the right for the meeting time. If there is a time you would like to suggest, please comment on this post.

Survey

Please follow the link to complete our Robotics Club survey. There are only 5 questions so it really will only take a minute! Thanks!

Meeting 5/4

We did it!

Meeting 4/20

Today we really got into putting the plan into action!

Robotics Meeting 4/13

We had a great meeting this week! Looks like we have the cRio put together and we are acquiring our 4 Jaguar speed controllers and our chassis that we ordered. We have a descent tool set now and are ready to move on our next build. Click here to see our new chassis that includes a direct Mecanum drive! I have put up some new links to the documentation if you would like to take a look at it before our build next Tuesday at 2:00. Hope to see you all there!

Also, comment here or send me an email if you think of anything that should be included in my next shopping trip besides a good screwdriver set and a battery charger.

Meetings are now from 2-4p in E-105

Please comment here if you can/can't make it.

We're looking at making a droid-type unit with a Mecanum drive system. This seems to be the consensus of the group. There has also been some interest in adding some type of a launcher that can be targeted to the robot, mounting a camera so it can be driven remotely and having an autonomous component to the programming so that it performs pre-programmed tasks. Please comment if you have additional or even better ideas for us.

This Tuesday we should be doing a lesson in basic electronics and then engaging in the design process. I look forward to seeing you there!

WE'RE BACK - TUESDAY 3/2 AT 1PM IN E-105

Hello everyone,
We are going to start meeting again this semester! We have some funds and some equipment so we will start organizing and building right away. Our first meeting will be on Tuesday at 1pm in E-105. I look forward to creating something great this semester! To see what I have been working on as an assistant coach this past couple of months click here. See you all on Tuesday!
