Johnston Inter/Adv Robotics
Robotics Research Projects are due at the end of the week in a Robotics Research Folder. All Parts:
For part 3 you should document your process:
- your design process
- iterations
- difficulties
- what worked & what didn't
- the code for your robot
All CAD designed parts should also be put in proper engineering design tile blocks and uploaded to your TDD folder.
You should have a prototype and/or be incorporating a motor and a control system by now.

RRP checklist for completion
Non-FTC Robot:
Research on history of one system answering:
What is the history behind the company developing the robot?
What is the history behind the robot itself?
Is the robot teach-pendant(remote controlled) or autonomous?
What role does the robot fill that humans can’t? Why can’t humans fill that role?
What features or subsystems make this robot unique?
Presentations should include imagery as well as video where appropriate.

FTC Game Mechanism:
Explanation of the design process
Game research and reading of game manual
Based on this a simple sketch of an idea for a mechanism
Research of a team and answer the following
What type of drivetrain did they use?
What sort of submechanisms made that robot successful?
Did the team make anything exceptional happen?
