Fall Season Projects 2022

Last fall, our team has worked in groups on seven different projects. These projects were a fun way to learn new skills and further develop old ones in preparation for the 2023 FIRST robotics competition season that started in January.

Pinball Machine

A few of our team members are using engineering skills and creativity to build a pinball machine.

The pinball machine will be used at future events as a source of fun for team members.

Hooded Shooter

Some of competition tasks in the past have envolved shooting balls at targets. Our team is attempting to develop a hooded shooter to increase accuracy with an adjustable hood over the shooter that will help improve our robot's aim.

Elevator

Our team is currently constructing a small "elevator," which is essentially a small, raisable platform. The platform can hold weights and will be used by programmers to test the robot's motor strength and its capability to raise heavy objects.

Targeting System

Our team strives to be ahead of the competition, and our programing team is working hard on a new and improved targeting system that uses a camera with photon vision to find a "QR code" to shoot at.

Baseball Machine

The team was tasked with making a baseball shooting machine for the school's baseball team. A small group of students took up the challenge and made an EPIC shooter!

Swerve Frame

With a swerve frame, our team's robot is able to move in any direction at any time. This allows us to turn faster than other teams, thus giving us an advantage.
