FIRST ROBOTICS
Transcript: Autonomous robot using LEGO Mindstorm robot set 6 week period to design, build, and tag your robot Week 1: Read through the rules, brainstorm, strategy, plan Week 2-4: Divide into groups, prototype, design, start build Week 5-6: Final design, testing, practicing FIRST ROBOTICS FIRST LEGO League Drive Train Specifications Grades 7-12 Very similar to FLL/VEX Larger scale robotics We are a team. We do the work to find solutions with guidance from our coaches and mentors. We know our coaches and mentors don't have all the answers; we learn together. We honor the spirit of friendly competition. What we discover is more important than what we win. We share our experiences with others. We display Gracious Professionalism® and Coopertition® in everything we do. We have FUN! - See more at: http://www.firstlegoleague.org/mission/corevalues#sthash.FmWDYzBs.dpuf Electronics Robot Game Height: 5 ft. Weight: 120 lb. Must follow rules guidelines outlined in the manual from the beginning of every season Involves programming, building, and designing Grades 9-12 Embraces both technical and professional side Millions in scholarship Similar to a design notebook Goal: Allows judges and bystanders to learn more about the team and robot Serves as a reference, documentation, and overall resource for your team Powered by Android Similar to FLL, uses metal instead of LEGO's Cheapest option of the FIRST programs Works well in a classroom setting, small teams Core values Robot Game Project What is FIRST? Ages: Jr. FLL (4-8), FLL (9-14) Introduces fun and excitement into Science and Technology 10 kids, 2 coaches, any organization or group STEM related idea Real world inspiration Presentation, essay, prototype For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology Mission: "Our mission is to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders, by engaging them in exciting mentor-based programs that build science, engineering and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership." Vision: "To transform our culture by creating a world where science and technology are celebrated and where young people dream of becoming science and technology leaders." FLL Core Values FLL Teams are Judged in 3 Categories FIRST Robotics Competition Robot/Game What can I use to achieve this goal? Pneumatics (air) Motors Belts Chains Pulleys Engineering Notebook FIRST Technical Challenge Competitions/Awards RoboRio Power Distribution Panel Pneumatics Control Module Voltage Regulator Motor Controllers Spike Relay Circuit Breaker Camera Battery Build Season Pneumatics/Strategy Mentors serve as a resource, answer questions, assist, KIDS DO THE WORK FLL Project Options: Chains Belts 4 wheel or 6 wheel drive Sticky wheels, omnidirectional wheels, etc.
