Our process closely resembles what actually happens in engineering design shops. We prototype, design, prototype, design, building the final product from the parts that was designed, with many parts produced in a fab shop. Just like the real world deal.
Our robot may or may not be effective, I hope it is. It looks like it was professionally designed and produced, with a lot of mentor support.
We will probably get blistered this year with criticism because of how it looks and not how it really happened. I don't really know how to counter that and I don't want to waste the time.
We are also working with a low experience, low resource team and we are working to create a robot to see how effective it can be. Using limited talent and training, and hand tools and a hacksaw. It will be interesting.
