Summer Work Continues in July

We haven't posted in a few weeks but that doesn't mean we have stopped working.

Spectrum Summer Workshop Series 2012

We had a very successful summer workshop series. Here are the presentations from that workshop. They look better if you download them.


Houston FRC Mentor Workshop Summer 2012

We also held the first Houston Summer Mentor Workshop at St. Agnes last weekend. We had 13 mentors from 10 teams on hand for two day to learn more about FRC and exchange ideas. It went extremely well, we had several 1st year mentors on hand that now have a better idea of how they will improve their teams in the next few years.


Robot Improvements

We haven't forgotten about the robot either. We've upgraded the collector to have a third stage to make our shooting more consistent and we have continued work on the vision processing as well. Today we upgraded our drive train with colson wheels in the center on each side.


Texas Robot Roundup is less than two weeks away. These last few days are driver practice and programming improvements. Along with a little bit of wire clean up.
