Well, sorry for the hiatus but build season got a little crazy.
We have officially finished the robot and it's locked in the competition approved bag. Our robot weighs in at 119.2lbs (we have a 120lbs limit). It took several late nights but we had a working robot in time for Austin Robot Round Up (a pre-ship scrimmage) that took place on Sat. Feb. 18, 2012. We have a successful autonomous and are able to drive the robot by Kinect (although I have to admit, it is a little terrifying). We have several demos lined up before we go to competition in April.
Pictures and video will be posted on our website shortly.
Thanks for reading!
