Planning
- Students are responsible for understanding all the necessary parts and electronics involved in the robot's function
- Includes designing the layout for the electronics
- Drawing, calculating, and assessing are all important skills when it comes to planning
Wiring
- Students learn to crimp, solder, and organize wires
- Wiring includes working with electronics from motors to the roborio
- Organization and attention to detail are two highly important characteristics of students on this sub team
Diagnosing
- Students test the electronics through working closely with electrical and mechanical sub teams
- Students assess their work and look for potential problems and solutions
- Once problems are determined, planning and wiring are involved in allowing the robot to work efficiently
