Day 2

Today we sat down and discussed design ideas with the whole team, this year GUS is striving extremely hard to make sure every kid on the team has a say in the design, and a hand in building the robot. Our first game element was completed and work has started on the other.

From the programmers standpoint, they worked with the kitbot to start prototyping so ideas. They also brainstormed some coding ideas, such as an automatic shifter, a turret that would be able to track the retroreflective tape, and a sensor that would light up some LEDs when the bridge is balance within 5°. More work is to come.

Today was also our annual Kickoff Pasta Dinner Fundraiser! It was extremely successful and we even had a few big names come threw the doors to support the team. Thank you to everyone that helped out and made this possible, awesome job guys!
