when do rookie teams get software for team use.
 

I am on team 4138. I am the coach. I am wondering when the software for the robot will be sent to our school. do I need to start downloading software such as Solid Works or Lab view to a file on my server?

LabVIEW comes in the Kit of Parts, I believe.

For Solidworks, you can request a free license for your team. Contact Marie Planchard:

For Autodesk projects, join the Autodesk education community at :

www.autodesk.com/first

there you can register and download products such as Inventor for free.


If you wanted to do Java on the robot, you can get a head start:

Download this guide;

and this package
