Hi everyone!
Safety Contact: With the strong winds tonight, be careful driving and be sure to pay attention to the wind that might be pushing your car. and remember that with a taller car, it easier for the wind to push your car because there is more surface area for the wind.
The electrical team wired up last year's robot with the 2008 control system. They still have to finish with the operator's system and work with the programming team to make sure the right code is in the robot, but once that is all done, they will be ready for tomorrow's challenge.
The programming team reimaged the cRio and tested the entire 2011 robot.
The minibot team has been working on the deployment system for the minibot.
The bumper team worked on gluing the pool noodles onto the plywood to finish the bumpers.
The rest of the students not on one of these three teams were migrating and helping the three major teams with progress.
Tomorrow is going to be the Battle of the Bots. The plan is to take the 2010 robot (with 2008 controls) and put it up against the 2011 robot. The 2010 robot is going to be used to test the center of gravity of the 2011 robot to see if it can be toppled easily.
Thanks Mat for bringing dinner tonight! Our next meeting is tomorrow, Feb. 9, at 4:30.
Hope everyone has a good night!
14 days left of Build Season...
