- Slide 6
- Your Robot What qualities should a robot have, lets take drivetrain for example o Ring It Up! - powerful, hold/take a position in front of rack Scoring opportunities space constrained o Bowled Over - agility, speed more important than power Scoring opportunities all over the field o Get Over It! - drive train that could navigate all the terrain.
- Slide 7
- Design Principles and Strategies
- Slide 8
- KISS o Keep It Super Simple Tool Design First Leapfrog Development o Never go backwards Repetitive Testing o Repetitive Testing Competitive Development
