It’s been a quiet few days here at the workshop, but we’ve been a far cry from unproductive. Let’s jump right in! The build team has been working hard to make sure we’re ready to go when the next competition comes around. Although we put up a strong showing last time, damage to the robot…

Hello again, everyone! First off, we’ve finally got our deliveries in, both for the T-shirts and the long-awaited programming computers. But more importantly, we’re back from competition, and there’s a lot to talk about! First off, the competition itself was a success. We were able to get Mr. Reynolds, our mentor, onto the Woodie Flowers…

Hello! There’s a lot to report today, even setting aside the unusual date. As the competition looms, we’re going beginning the shift from finishing our normal goals (updating code, building the robot, and awards) to preparation for the competition itself. The Build Team spent the day tying up lose ends. We now have a fully…

Hello again! We’ve had a busy week as crunch time begins to set in, but we’re really starting to see results. With our next competition just a few short weeks away, we’re working faster than ever to make sure we can meet our deadlines, both for robot building milestones and award submissions. The Build Team…

Hello all! We’ve had quite possibly our most productive two days yet, with the robot finally starting to look like it’s supposed to, the code approaching a state where we’re ready to run it with the robot, and the first few award submissions signed, sealed, and finished. At 6:00 pm last night, the package with…

Hello again everyone! After being kept home by what I can only describe as a “sleet day,” we weren’t able to have a meeting this Friday, but we’re here today, and ready to make up for the lost time. Let’s get to it! After their fair share of trials and tribulations, the Build Team has…

Hello again, everyone! We’re halfway through another week of the build season, and this time we’ve been able to march through without any scheduling interruptions (fingers crossed that it stays that way). As usual, we have a lot we’d like to show off, so let’s get right to it! First and foremost, the Build Team…

Hello all! To start with, we had a short week thanks to finals, so we’ve decided to sum up the whole week with one (drum roll here) Super Blog! Even though this was a small week, between all three days we have a lot to report, from considerable achievements on the Build front to steady…

Hello again! We’re back to running at full steam, with prototypes from the build team, motor tests from the programming team, and some outreach updates from the business team. First off, the Build Team has finalized the design for the ball launcher. Similar to our design from two years ago, this year’s robot will use…

Hello all! Finally Friday, and we’ve got lots to tell you. Throughout the week, we’ve been hard at work, planning, building, and writing. We’re excited to share what we’ve got so far, and what we plan to execute in the coming weeks. We’ve decided on a Monday/Friday schedule for these posts, so we can keep…
