Re: Senior Design Projects
 

Some time ago there was a post about someone building an UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) that shoots airsoft pellets on the FRC Subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/FRC/comment...lly_nooby_and/
It looks like a pretty cool idea that I personally would be all over doing

The NASA Lunabotics Competition (now martian) is one of the closest experiences to FRC I could find in a senior project. Lunar mining is not easy, and full autonomy is even harder. I competed with a team of eight individuals on some insanely tight constraints.

This was our monstrosity. It was the first rover from my university to be successful in competition at mining and depositing lunar simulants.

Very cool design! Bison Robotics is actually competing in the NASA Robotics Mining Competition already. I would agree that it's a great next-level competition from FRC. As per Bison Robotics' policy, I won't be able to do this competition as a senior design project, but it's a great suggestion!

The one FIRST-specific senior design project that stuck out to me is the 254/968 2007 super-duper-lightweight 2-speed.
