Welcome to the '''[http://www.robojackets.org/ RoboJackets]''' BattleBots wiki! [[File:NHRL April 2024 Group Photo.JPG|thumb|right|600px|BattleBots team at NHRL April 2024]]

Everyone has seen BattleBots on T.V., fighting to the death in a gladiatorial-style arena in a shower of steel, sparks, and glory, and yet many people haven't the first clue about what it takes to build one!

RoboJackets' BattleBots team tries to solve this, by teaching members to design and build a robot 1) robust enough to take multiple beatings, but 2) strong enough to deliver its own beatings in return. A good technical challenge that takes hundreds of man-hours and buckets of love. We have built battle-ready robots in the 120 lb, 60 lb, 30 lb, 12 lb, and 3 lb weight classes, including (based on their active weapon) drum spinners, ring spinners, shell spinners, veritical and horizontal bar spinners, sumo bots, walkers, and even the occassional wedge.

We use mostly mechanical skills with some degree of electrical experience to implement our carefully CAD'ed designs, to personally manufacture the majority of our robots. Ultimately our goal is to build an awesome machine to fight one-on-one with another robot in the same weight class, all the while learning practical applications of tooling and machining, and gaining invaluable experience in the design and manufacturing process.

== Meeting Times ==

We meet in the Student Competition Center (Building on 14th Street). Wear closed-toe shoes and a t-shirt (long sleeves must be rolled up) since we will be using the machine shop. Bring a hair tie if needed. Consult the #carpool Slack channel for information regarding the time and place of the carpool. Please note that once 3 pound program members are placed on teams, that they will only meet on either Thursday OR Friday until further notice.

* Thursday: 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm
* Friday 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm

== Current Leadership ==
* Project Manager: AJ Abrigo
* The Hand: John Matthews
* The Foot: Evan Strakes
* 3lb Czar: Dylan Park
Bot Leads:
*Galaxi: Shri Thada
*Cherri: Alex King
*Graviti: Isaac Auner

== The Competition ==

The competition consists of fights between robots in the same weight class. Competition rules place certain limits on weapon design and robot weight, for a fair contest and for the safety of the observers. For instance, entanglement weapons such as ropes or nets are prohibited along with invisible weapons such as electrical interference. This focuses the robot design on aggressive weapons designed to break apart or incapacitate the other robot, and the only limit on this type of weapon is that it is well engineered so as to not harm the people around it. The presence of these aggressive weapons forces the robots to be designed to withstand large shock loads, both mechanically and electrically. The challenge of the BattleBots team is unique in that a balance needs to be reached between defensive and offensive abilities, all while ensuring that the robot is very robust in all aspects. Even a single wire or bolt coming loose will cause defeat in an intense fight!  This year we plan on attending two competitions, Motorama in Harrisburg, PA and RoboBrawl in Champaign, IL.

== 3 Pound Program ==

The three pound program is for new BattleBots members to learn the technical skills needed to succeed in BattleBots and create their very first 3 pound BattleBot. Members of this program will have the opportunity to work on a team to create a 3 pound beatleweight bot for competition. Through this process they will become proficient in Inventor CAD, machining abilities, electrical work, and teamwork. Once graduated from the 3 pound program, members can take what they've learned to the next level on a big bot team. Check out the links below for some advice on your 3 pound bot.

[[Category:RoboRacing]]
[[File:RoboRacing-team.jpg|thumb|right|400px| IARRC Result 2019 – First Place!]]
RoboRacing is a competitive robotics team geared towards autonomous racing of small scale automotive platforms. The team started in 2013 and has since built robots to compete in the IARRC competition since the team's inception, as well as the Sparkfun AVC competition since 2016. RoboRacing is additionally planning on competing in the evGrand Prix Autonomous competition in 2020.

RoboRacing puts its members at the forefront of emerging technology in self-driving cars through involvement in autonomous RC vehicle design, fabrication, and programming. Each competition has proven to be a great learning opportunity for everything from robust mechanical design to advanced programming skills that could be applied to diverse engineering applications.

Etu8: Updated RN leadership for the 24-25 school year

[[Category: RoboNav]]
[[File:Jessii.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Our 2019 robot, Jessii]]
The IGVC competition is centered around building the next generation of off-road, all-weather autonomous vehicles. The idea is to create a vehicle and tech stack that can navigate through an obstacle course to given GPS waypoints without human intervention. The map is not known beforehand, and while there are certain obstacles that are commonly used, theoretically anything can be placed onto the course. The competition is scored in three main areas. First is the design of the robot as presented in the TDP (a written report on the vehicle) that is given to industry experts for judging. Next, the team is scored based on their presentation of the robot, including a Q&A from the judges. Finally, the robot is put to the test by trying to navigate the fastest route on the AutoNav course. '''If''' multiple robots complete the course, the winner is the robot that completed it in the fastest time. Otherwise, the robot that navigates the farthest is the winner. In other words, speed is second to safety.
