Week 1 of deep space has come and gone. The team was fast at work brainstorming, prototyping, and learning new software tools.
CAD The CAD team has been working non stop and has completed the drive train as well as beginning to CAD the intake. Mechanical The Mechanical team has brainstormed many ways to get the robot on to stages of the HAB zone. As well as prototyping mechanisms to pick up cargo and hatch panels. The Mechanical team has also begun measuring and building game pieces. Software and Electrical The Software and Electrical team explored integrating image recognition and working with raspberry pi's in tandem with the roboRIO.
