High-Level Strategy

Over the first few months of our season, our team has spent countless hours designing, building, and programming our base robot and attachments. While our team strives to create a robot that is as repeatable as possible, we recognize that creating 100% repatability on the robot is practically unachievable due to varying mat and table conditions. However, with the use of our various light and gyro sensors, we are able to minimize the error associated with navigation and mission completion.
