First Look at Rocky 2015!

We have made some great progress over the past two weeks and have our early prototype driving, lifting, and moving totes!  This is great with just two weeks of work!  This is a testament to all of our hard working students, coaches, and volunteers!!!  

We are on our way to a great season!!!  We have been here seven days a week since kickoff and have worked many late nights!  This hard work is demonstrated through our accomplishments so far!

Here are some short videos of our progress:

Video #1

This was taken at the end of week one.  This is our chassis design using "mechanum" wheels.  As you can see the drive train is very nimble and easily traverse the step both forward and backwards as well as in hover mode.



Video #2

This was taken this past weekend.  It was the first test of our lifting mechanism.  As you can see, it is working very well.  We definitely seem to be on the right track!



Video #3

This was taken last night at about 7:30PM!  This was our drive train working together with our lifting"ladder" placing totes on a stack!  Again, what great progress.





Again, congratulations to all who are working long hours and days to make this happen.


LET’s GO  FIRST!!! GO ROCKY!  GO TEAM 203!!
