Designing a FRC Robot, a Team Approach Andy Baker President, AndyMark Inc. 11 year mentor on FRC team 45 2003 Championship Woodie Flowers Award Winner

Ten tips from Andy

1. Pre-season tasks Build team Set team goals Determine leaders Set up resources Develop Skills

2. Kickoff Divide into equal sub-groups Watch Kickoff together No stragglers Know the game Brainstorm Start building the field Buy stuff Day 0

3. Sub-Group Decision Process BRAINSTORM Organize & categorize ideas Focus on OVERALL GAME PLAY Critique, analyze, & eliminate ideas Pick best ideas Agree on overall design Days 1-3

4. Design Presentations Audience – everyone! Sub-teams present design concepts Students lead, adults help as needed Day 4

5. Disown, sleep and decide All sub-team concepts are team property Sleep on it Decide the following day

6. Make a decision Review and critique, using GP Discuss common ideas Make a Decision Matrix Determine qualities and assign values Rate each team’s idea per each quality Total each sub-team’s points Highest point total wins Focus on concept with highest point total Add common features from other concepts

Democracy should ensue… but a monarchy may come about during an impasse

7. Putaside Mr. Bill Beatty, team 71

8. Design Assignments Drivebase Arm, grabber, etc. Lift, structure, etc. Software team (already in place) Finish the field Don’t let slackers bring you down Reviews daily and weekly Weight and motor management To air or not to air Build 2?

9. Build a Robot Drive it early, by week 3 Break it early, fix it early Weigh it down Meet build goals Give drivers 1 week to practice Give software team 2 weeks to debug Celebrate mistakes Make spares

10. Celebrate Success Have an open house Plan for fun, right before shipping Ship Practice, fix-it, and tweak

Thank you Any questions?
