The 2019 robot is now real! The chassis is welded and mechanisms were manufactured and assembled during this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chassis<\/strong> got the chassis back from Drake Welding and finished assembling gearboxes and wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hatch Panel<\/strong><\/em> manufactured and assembled parts, and they plan to have the mechanism complete soon. Cargo<\/strong><\/em> finished their design reviews and CAD. They started preparing material for manufacturing and also plan to have the mechanism done soon to begin testing. Climb<\/strong><\/em> finished the manufacturing and assembly of the mechanism and are testing on platforms. Field Elements<\/strong><\/em> placed plastic on HAB levels; all field elements are now complete!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Electronics<\/strong> received e-plate dimensions and are continuing to work on the CAD. They started to prepare all electronics components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Programming<\/strong> is testing code on the slider, camera capabilities on the 2016 chassis, and vision on the 2018 chassis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Public Relations<\/strong> is continuing work on the TKO baubles. The competition t-shirt is now available for purchase on the Lion\u2019s Den!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Outreach<\/strong> reached out to reserve space for the National Engineers Week display and are planning content for the display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Website<\/strong> re-organized tabs, finished content for the About Us page, and linked the team calendar to website. They are aiming to launch a preliminary version of the website this week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we approach the second half of the 2019 Build Season, our goal is to have our mechanisms complete by next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re halfway through build season! Only three more weeks to go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The 2019 robot is now real! The chassis is welded and mechanisms were manufactured and assembled during this week.
