This season's game is called Into The Deep.
​
In this water-themed game, our robot will transport rectangular game pieces called 'samples' and 'specimens' to various places on the field including to the structure called the 'submersible'.
​
For a summary of the game watch this linked video.
THIS SEASON
OUR ROBOTS
Since our team's start in 2011, we have come a long way in our robot's design and function.
​
Each season starts with a design process, where we develop robot ideas and game strategies. We then utilize CAD and prototyping to help design and build our robot.
Through our use of CAD, we are able to more flexibly flush out our robot designs, and we are able to make use of custom designed parts.
