Hi everyone!
Today was a long day for those who were in the workshop all day. The rest of crunch weekend will be the same way due to the amount of time we are in the workshop each day and the increased amount of stress with the due date looming closer. Which leads us to our Safety Contact for today.
Safety Contact: If at any point during the weekend you feel tired or overworked, take a break and drink some water, sit and relax for a few minutes, or do something to get back up to the level you need to be at to work safely. We don't want anything to happen to anyone due to being tired or not feeling right.
Programming team: added a "travel" mode that is used to set up for a match and for playing defense and cleaned up and commented code.
Minibot team: worked on the gearing system and is attempting to make the minibot faster.
Electrical team: cleaned up wires and wired up new sensors.
We did get some time to practice driving tonight. There were some few problems with a delay from the driver's station to the robot near the end.
The plan is to go to BCIT tomorrow to practice with a few other teams. Students must have a permission slip in order to go. We are wearing our black practice shirts (plain black shirts for anyone who does not have a practice shirt). If any of the veteran students have an extra black practice shirt, please bring it tomorrow for a new student to wear.
Tomorrow we meet from 9am - 9pm with a planned trip to BCIT from 11am - 3pm.
4 days til Build Season is over!
