Design- all team members
- Develop strategy to play the game
- Develop a design of a robot based on the pre-determined strategy that abides by the constraints of the competition
- Develop designs of the subsystems required
- Develop backup designs
- Once a comprehsive design is developed, an inventory of parts needed and ordering them
- Each subsystem MUST have drawings and/or a schematic
Manufacturing - Drivetrain, Frame, Electronics, Pneumatics, Programming
- Use the provided designs to build the subsystems
- Evaluate the subsystems and thier practicallity
- Redesign if necessary
- Machine extra parts subsystems vulnerable to breakage
- Machine intended backup designs
- Finish the subsystem build by using the actual materials intended for the competition
Intergration / Game Strategy
- Design and build specific game elements
- Coordinate subsystems together to ensure compatibility
- Prepare for additional debugging and testing
- Finish assembly
Documentation
- Document team activity through pictures and video
- Organize and catalog all media for team use when necessary
- Record and keep inventories of parts and materials for the team
- Maintain top-down documentation of team-related information, including designs, group documents, parts lists, special parts, vendors, etc.
- Maintain records of current season design, including the design as well as changes and reasons for them
