Build Team
The build team has been working on our tank bot, enabling it to aim and rapid-fire. We then gave it a plywood skin, and painted it hot-pink. The build team has been working on many projects. The tank bot is a secondary robot for outreach designed to look cool, for the purpose of recruitment. The build subdivision is currently building an elevator mechanism, so we can update our arsenal of ideas. The build team also upgraded the hardware inside the newly donated computers. We specifically have been upgrading the RAM memory inside the computer. If you have any old computers that you plan on throwing out, let us know!
The build team also completed our renovation of our 3D printers, allowing us to recommission our Raise3D Pro 2+ printer. We fixed the motor that allows movement in the “X”-direction of the printing bed. We also purchased a Bambu Labs A1 printer, which allows four-color printing.
Programming Team
The programming team is working on getting the sensors on our Meta Quest to work, and teaching new members Java. We are going to use the Meta Quest sensors to help our robot during the autonomous period of our matches.
Business Team
On the business side, we are working on the new Astro website, as well as reaching out to potential sponsors. We also are performing a renovation on our social media presence, updating outdated information. Our Astro website is coming along well, and is going to improve our outreach. Furthermore, it will help with contacting other teams in the area.
