What Are Sub-Teams?

Sub-Teams are what we consider to be sub-divisions of our overall Robotics Team. Each Sub-Team has specific tasks that helps our team be successful. A members' Sub-Team is based on their own choices and interests. Below is an explanation of the tasks each team accomplishes.

What are our Sub-Teams?

Design

Creating models, prototypes, and robot designs
Brainstroming robot designs
Utlizing 3-D design software to delvelope and model a robot physically
Preparing 2-D drawings from the 3-D model for use in fabrication
Collaborating with Mechanical team to prototype and test mechanisms

Mechanical

Fabricating machine parts and assembling robots
Brainstorming and building physical designs
Creating mechanisms for proper functions of the robot
Maintaining the guidelines presented by the FRC Physical Robot Design Rules
Assuring robots are in functioning order, working properly, and are undamaged

Controls

Organizing a layout for the Electrical Wiring of robots
Fabricating a wiring system, as well as mounting electronics
Maintaining a robot's power and electrical system
Working with other Sub-Teams to configure proper electrical organization, coordinating to a robot's build

Programming
