Team 6978 Week 7 Update

Week 7 • February 2024

Thank you for all your support of our team! Without your sponsorship, this build season would not be possible. Here is what we have been working on over the past week.

The Practice Field

Over the past weekend, we visited the practice field of Team 1114. Within just an hour, we managed to exhaust one of the motors on the practice robot. On the brighter side, our testing of the competition robot showed some progress, although there is still ample room for improvement.

Media Team Update

In the upcoming weeks, we'll embark on the task of revamping our website. We plan to update pages with outdated or missing information and give the entire site a more appealing look.

When participating in competitions, it's crucial to present ourselves effectively. To enhance our team's visibility, we've crafted a banner design that we aim to have printed soon.

Next Steps

In the upcoming week, we're focused on enhancing the competition robot by installing LEDs and additional cameras. The completion of the practice robot takes precedence, as it provides a platform for refining our offensive capabilities. For the competition robot, we still need to connect a router, for which we've 3D printed the holder, and finalize both sets of bumpers. Our strategic plan involves making extensive use of the practice field in the meetings leading up to the competitions.
