Super Powered

Project - Our final solution is an easily removable attachment that can go on any bike. It has 1 rear wheel generator and has the ability to generate 6 watts continually which goes into a batteryrge to power things later. After 1 hour of bike riding this would provide you with over 360 watts which is enough to power a TV for 2 hours, recharge a laptop three to four times, and recharge smartphones around 18 times.

Robot - Each year we look at the field and decide what we can do most missions with, this year it was a lift, push, and pull which we mostly accomplished with our forklift. We realized that there weren't many high point value items and we would have to do every mission possible. To do every mission we needed a way to control the rolling energy units on the field, which we did with one-way gates and pea-shooters. To keep track of our work on the robot we logged a practice chart and a GANTT chart. This year we improved our code by creating a fail safe for our turns because sometime we would get stuck on the hybrid car mission.
