What is a Robot
Here I imagine a table, containing typical parts (weapon, motors, receiver), descriptions of the parts, typical weights and dimensions, and accompanying picture(s)
Design Process
Introduction
Here's where there will be a small speech about the importance of the design process
Step 1: Sketch
Here's a description about how the sketching process works (limited dimensions, a focus of features, roundtable discussion)
Step 2: Draw
Here's a description about how the technical drawing process works (concentration of dimensions, viewpoints, and materials)
Step 3: Picking a motor
Here's a description on how to pick a motor (math n stuff)
Step 4: CAD Parts
Here's a description about how CADing the individual parts should work (the division of labor vs team all being on the same page)
Step 5: CAD Assembly
Here's a description about how assembling the CAD parts works (things to consider regarding final CAD for design review)
Step 6: Design Review
Here's a description about the design review (what to expect)
Step 7: Revise and repeat
Here's a description about what to do after the design review
Machining
Machines and what they do
- Machine 1: Does stuff
- Machine 2: Does other stuff
- Machine 3: Profit
Rules
- Rule 1: No killing yourself
- Rule 2: Beware the spinny bit on the mill
- Rule 3: No bathing in the water jet
Tips and Tricks
- How to turn on the waterjet
- Step 1:...
- Step 2:...
- What materials to use where
- If xyz breaks, do abc
Physics and Math (Oh my!)
Here's where there will be a rehashing of the math formulas and physics properties to know
Documentation
Here's where a guide regarding documentation will be
Previous bots
Here's where links to previous bots that are good examples will be
Probably another section I'm forgetting
