Hi all FIRST teams,
To assist your team with your robot design and mobility around the field, PTC has released a new robotics curriculum. The new curriculum will provide your team with the background information, knowledge and understanding needed to use Pro/ENGINEER to design, assemble and simulate a virtual robot. While the context used is based on the FIRST Tech Challenge competition, teams entering other robotics competitions; including FIRST Robotics Challenge should also find the exercises useful.
Topics covered:
Stability and Structures
Electronic Motors
Mechanisms
Movement and Control
System and Controls
Detailed Drawings
Rendering
The curriculum is located on the FIRST Getting Started Page, under the Resources for FIRST Teams section – www.ptc.com/go/firstgettingstarted. You will also find the models in ISO and ANSI formats that can be downloaded.
Regards,
Mark
