Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
At the LA regional this year, 330 won the Leadership in Control Award for the first time in team history. We've now won at least one of each of the 5 technical awards (Creativity, Engineering Excellence, Industrial Design, Leadership in Control, Quality) This made me want to look at how many other teams have won at least one of each. I used Team 358's award database

Through the end of the 2013 season, there are 35 teams that have completed the Engineering Awards Quinfecta.

Code:
Team        Creativ        Eng Exc        Ind Dsn        Control        Quality        Total        Year
33        3        5        7        4        4        23        2008

Is the Excellence in Engineering Award equivalent to Delphi's other awards they offered in the past (Driving Tomorrow's Technology, for instance)?

Yes. Here is the description from the 2002 manual of the Delphi Driving Tommorow's Technology award
Quote:
“Driving Tomorrow’s Technology”
This award celebrates an elegant and advantageous machine feature. This award recognizes any aspect of engineering elegance including, but not limited to: design, wiring methods, material selection, programming techniques, and unique machine attributes. The criteria for this award are based on the team’s ability to concisely verbally describe, as well as demonstrate, this chosen machine feature.
Compared to 2014:

It looks like Team 696 is missing the creativity award. We still need to win that award to get the Quinfecta.

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
Hi Joe,

We got our first Industrial Design award at Gull Lake this year so by my research we have all five now but the one I am most proud of is the Engineering Excelence award we got in 2011 at Champs. The same year we met the BeachBots and were alliance partners in Archimedes.

Good Luck and I hope to see you guys in St Louis again!!

Hey Joe,

Your friend Dave decided that we had to be on that list. So.. with my ancient memory and Dave's persistence we managed to find the trophies in our lab to make the quinfecta.

Until this year we were short a Quality award. So with that win, it looks like Team 294 gets to join the elite quinfecta list.

Awesome!

Adam, when most of us look at your robots, we aren't thinking, "How Creative!"

What we are thinking is more like, "Holy Crap!"

It would not be PC if I designed it, but I have had that feeling upon seeing some of the HOF team robots. Also frequently have "Why didn't we think of that" effect at events. I am a fan of "deceptively simple" designs which I believe are not so simple to engineer but make the most robust robots.

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
Very cool thread Joe!

It looks like 1678 has joined the Quinfecta Club this year! With the Creativity Award at Inland Empire and the Engineering Excellence Award at Sacramento, we now have exactly one of each of the Engineering Awards Quinfecta!

Also, interesting point, each one of our 5 Engineering Awards is associated with one of our 5 Regional Wins in 1678's history.

Adam, I was surprised that you didn't win the Creativity award in 2012. I don't recall seeing another team that made something similar to 67's utility arm. Still my favorite bot off all time.

It's not for a lack of creativity... IMHO, your 2008 drivetrain was pretty creative (as far as FRC bots go that is)... and that's the just the tip of the iceberg. Or say the hanger in 2010. Getting that to fit in such a small space probably took some creativity. And using a gas spring for an after-the-buzzer hang... A lot of teams certainly didn't think of that.

I'm not going to name names or point fingers, but IMHO, there have been bots that won creativity that weren't all that great... not "bad", but to the point where the creativity almost or sometimes did hamper performance. I've also seen winning bots that were very good performers (such as 469 in 2010). It's like patents... practicality and performance don't necessarily count, it's originality (which pretty much requires creativity) that is the criteria.

Good luck on getting the award in the future!

Thanks Larry!

Thinking about this further, I think the issue is more on own end. I believe our students talking with the judges are stressing the specific points of the design related to the Egineering Excellence, Industrial Design, Quality, Controls aspects...and not the Creativity side of the equation.

I might try to discuss this with our pit team to see if we can stress some of the more creative aspects of the robot to see if we can achieve the Creativity Award.

177 is only missing "Leadership in Controls"

We recieved the Delphi "Power to Simplify" award at the Championship in 1999 so you probably missed it.

This begs the question does anyone have the Championship Quinfecta?
We are 3/5 missing Leadership in Control" and Creativity.

When did 177 win Industrial Design at the Championship? Counting the Power to Simplify, I only see Power to Simplify in 1999 and Quality in 98.

As for championship:
233 is only missing Creativity at Championship.
33 is missing Creativity and Controls
1717 is missing Engineering Excellence and Industrial Design
2056 is missing Creativity and Industrial Design
126 is missing Engineering Excellence and Industrial Design

233 has the most Championship Engineering awards, at 5, 33 and 1717 have 4.

Sorry, you're right I misread it in the table I was looking at. I was looking at a regional one from 2001.

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
33 has also won the Imagery Award twice at CMP.
I am not sure if any other team has won 6 judged awards at CMP.

One thing I will say about the Quinfecta, The Creativity and Controls award are often given to call attention to one unique robot feature or function. Industrial Design, Quality, and Engineering Excellence seem to be better indicator of overall awesomeness. These awards also correlate to high OPR, and are better indicators of greatness.

So while 67 has not won Creativity, it is probably because they always have lots of great things on their machine.

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
125 looks to be missing quality.
Creativity (2010 Boston)
Engineering Excellence (2014 Rhode Island)
Industrial Design (2011 Boston, 2013 Pine Tree, 2014 Northeastern)
Innovation in Control (2011 Bayou)

Hopefully our robot won't spontaneously combust at Events 4 and 5 of the season.

[quote=Joe Ross;1366001]At the LA regional this year, 330 won the Leadership in Control Award for the first time in team history. We've now won at least one of each of the 5 technical awards (Creativity, Engineering Excellence, Industrial Design, Leadership in Control, Quality) This made me want to look at how many other teams have won at least one of each. I used Team 358's award database

Through the end of the 2013 season, there are 35 teams that have completed the Engineering Awards Quinfecta.


There are 88 teams who have won 4 of the awards through the end of the 2013 season. Here are the top teams and a listing of the award that hasn't been won.

Joe, thanks for the original post...

As of Week 5 2015, you can add Team 357, Royal Assault, to the "Engineering Awards Quinfecta".

We were extremely proud to have been the recipient of the Quality Award at the MAR Week 5 event held at the Upper Darby HS, this past weekend.

During the event, it was brought to my attention that I forgot to post a picture of our robot this year. I will post a picture shortly.

Team 2337 got the Industrial Design Award at the Kettering District and has now received the Engineering Awards Quinfecta.

www.frclinks.com/t/2337

Currently, we still have not won the following awards:

- Entrepreneurship Award
- FIRST Dean’s List Award
- Imagery Award
- Rookie Inspiration Award (no chance of winning)
- Woodie Flowers Award

157 still has yet to win the Industrial Design Award. That's the only one keeping us from the "Quinfecta" (Neat word :) )

Hopefully next year we can join the Group!

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
One of these years we can hopefully stand out better in Creativity/Control. 2x Quality and 2x Industrial in one season isn't bad though.

I honestly don't think FIRST promotes and gives the creativity award like they do the other 4. The biggest indicator is its awarding on Friday and not Saturday with the rest.

after winning the quality award at CIR this year, 2481 is only missing the excellence in engineering award to allow us to join this awesome list of teams.

Of all the teams to NOT have a creativity award, I don't understand HOW its 3467. Your robots are some of the most unique and creative year after year.

Haha thanks Kevin.

Our Creativity and Programming get wrapped up in the descriptions of other awards but maybe we should stress those words a little better.

I lost track how many times we had the word "Quality" in our 2012 technical documents for the judges and we figured out why it may have been a bad idea. :p

1714 MORE Robotics joined the quinfecta club by winning the Creativity Award at Lake Superior this year. Way to Learn MORE, Give MORE, Be MORE!

I always joke that its hard to tell what their robot does because its invisible :D

1058 is still searching for Industrial Design to finish our quinfecta. Hopefully it comes soon!

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
I was expecting to see 1519 on the list of 'have 4, searching for the 5th' teams but was surprised we weren't... turns out we only have 2!! :eek:

I feel like we usually win a technical award, but turns out we've been getting a fair number of non-technical awards (EI, Entrepreneurship, Gracious Professionalism, Chairmans) in recent events... of which I'm also very (very!) proud, but I admit I'd like to further our suite of tech awards...

So far only:
Engineering Excellence: 3x (2014 NE CMP, 2013 NCR, 2010 NCR)
Innovation in Control: 2x (2015 GSD, 2010 GSR)

I admit we usually lack something highly creative, but I feel like our quality and industrial design are usually there... although probably smaller than our controls and 'engineering' elements.

Back to the technical-award-drawing-board... :-/

Looks like TORC has made the EDIT: Quad-fecta as a Michigan District team.

2008 - Creativity Award
2011 - Industrial Design & Engineering Inspiration
2013 - Innovation in Control
2014 - Quality

Still Missing Excellence in Engineering.

It seems like most people treat Creativity as a lower design award than the rest, and thus often teams don't win it because they are given a higher design award.

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
254 is only missing Creativity...we received the Curie Division Innovation in Control Award last season, but it isn't reflected on the FIRST team page for some reason.

10 Quality Awards
8 Industrial Design
3 Engineering Excellence
1 Innovation in Control
0 Creativity

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
*toots horn*

As of this week, 2791 just needs Innovation in Control to complete the quinfecta. I'm pretty psyched about that.

1 Creativity - 2012 Connecticut
1 Engineering Excellence - 2013 WPI
3 Quality - 2013 BAE, 2014 FLR, 2015 Tech Valley
1 Industrial Design - 2015 FLR

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
After reading this thread I'm even more enthused about 3481's surprise, at least to us, first-time wins this season of Quality at Alamo and Industrial Design at Hub City.

These two awards in Texas are usually won by a group of 4-5 teams that we admire and look up to and winning them as a garage-based team with zero mechanical engineer mentors has been an awesome and rewarding experience for our students.

Well... two down and three to go and maybe we can join the club in the near future.... ;-)

Re: Engineering Awards Quinfecta
 
3419 is proud to have entered this club this weekend, I believe as it's youngest member. And we've accomplished it all in a 3-year span:

2016 Tech Valley - Creativity
2016 NYC - Quality
2015 Greater DC - Quality
2015 NYC - Innovation in Control
2014 NYC - Industrial Design
2014 Greater DC - Excellence in Engineering
(also 2013 NYC - Innovation in Control)

I'm very proud of our student's achievements. In describing the Creativity Award at Tech Valley, the MC said something along the lines of "They said a pneumatic swerve couldn't survive Stronghold, but 3419 proved them wrong." That brought a large smile to our faces!

Seeing this thread got bumped, TORC kicked off our 10th season, with an Excellence in Engineering award at Waterford.

Quinfecta complete.

Team 1619 was only missing the Industrial Design Award, which was awarded to us at the Utah Regional last year. As we now have all five, that means we are now a member of the quinfecta club!

Team 2363 has 4 of the 5 design awards, missing creativity:

Quality (2013 Virginia)

Innovation in Control (2015 Chesapeake)
Engineering Excellence (2011 Palmetto)

Apparently we aren't very "Creative". Can we get someone from 190 to advise us on creativity? :)

Never thought about the Engineering Awards Quinfecta, now I want to join the club.
All the awards at competition are judged exactly as described in the game manual. The key point is having the student effectively communicate to the judges what / how / why the judge should know about this.

Look at the buzzwords in the award description and work them into the discussion with the judge.
