Kickoff and the beginning of robots!

It's been a busy first few days! Four days ago, we attended kickoff with enthusiasm and open minds. Right after kickoff the whole team went to UPenn to discuss Recycle Rush. We spent time reviewing the rules and discussing game strategies. Then, the entire team voted on which robot functions are most crucial to having a successful season. Ever since kick off, everyone has been working hard on starting the build season off strong. The Electrical team has begun setting up the roboRIO and running sample codes to test for faultlessness. Meanwhile, the Mechanical team has begun setting up prototypes and modeling molds with cardboard and cutting them into metal.
