Key lessons learned
Prototype robot, do not strip parts from it, the software team needs the
prototype hardware for preliminary software development
Good luck,
Craig

There will also be a smaller sub team as follows:
PR / Organizational: This team will be responsible for multimedia production
and writing updates for the team Website. They will be involved in helping
keep team activities organized. They will put together and organize team
shirts and promotional items. This group may also help organize and plan
scouting operations.
Thanks,
Adam

Subject: [team2039] Sub Teams
Importance: High
Hello Student Team Members…
Please begin thinking about what robot sub team that you would like to be on.
Keep in mind that we need to fill all of these teams evenly, so please be
prepared to have a first second and third choice for which sub team you would
like to be on. Once you are assigned to a sub team, you will be required to
work on that sub team for the rest of the build season. Just because you were
on the electrical team one year does not mean that you cannot be on a
mechanical team the next year. We encourage everyone to gain some experience
in all aspects of the design since this will be very beneficial to you in your
future career!
Your options are as follows:
Systems: This team helps to integrate all of the functions of the robot and
makes sure all of the moving parts fit in the required space and do not
interfere with each other. This team will be working on integrating the sensor
functions with each of the moving parts and ensuring that the modular wiring
system is implemented properly. This team will also work on designing some of
the control law and functional guidelines that will go into the robot
programming.
Electronics and Programming: This team will be responsible for programming the
robot and general wiring of the power and sensor circuits. This team will work
closely with the systems group to help integrate the electrical and mechanical
aspects of the robot.
Drive Train / Chassis: This team will focus on the mobility of the robot. The
main task will be designing the frame and drive train to meet the speed,
maneuverability, traction and other requirements of the drive team and game
strategy. This team will be responsible for battery mounting, proper bumper
mounting and for providing structural hard points for the attachment of the
electronics and the other mechanical modules of the robot. Playing field
terrain and robot strategy will impact the direction that this team goes.
Special Ops (1 or 2): There will be one or two teams that are tasked with the
mechanical and electronic design of robot features that will be tasked with
scoring or manipulating objects on the playing field. We will not know what
these functions are until near the end of the first week. Some examples of
this are the robotic arm, minibot, conveyor systems, robot ramps, soccer ball
kicking legs that you may have seen on the other robots around the shop. Each
special ops team will have one limited area to focus on and will be responsible
for designing and building that component. They must interface with the
systems and cad groups to ensure that their design does not interfere with
other aspects of the robot design.
Emphasis - CAD team: The CAD team will be comprised of students from each of
the other sub-teams. These students will be responsible for drawing and
modeling the sub teams design and then they will work together on the CAD team
to combine all of the parts into one robot design.
Animation: The animation team will be completing another challenge during the
build season. Students will work on the animation, and may help out with the
robot sub teams if they do not have concurrent work requirements.
