Schools without me don't have a Chance

This was out first FTC competition at the Google campus in San Jose, California

These were the game pieces for the FTC season “Into the Deep” which I helped machine and give out to teams at out competitions. This required four different setups, but with clever fixturing, I only had to set my offsets once, then I could simply flip the part and run the same program until all four sides were completed.

Below is the robot I designed and manufactured for this year’s FTC season “Decode”. This is the latest version as compared to when it was originally made.

By custom powder coating our 6061 aluminum plates, we were able to eliminate Electrostatic Discharge, solving connectivity issues. Adjusting the intake and transfer also made for a bot that qualified our team for Nor Cal FTC Regionals – top 50 teams in the world at the time of this edit.
