Their robot might not look as clean and professional as a 254 or 148 bot, but it's nevertheless very high performance. 1678 is a testament to what awesome prototyping, driver practice, and good old fashioned hard work can do.
I second that shout out!

Their robot was my favorite at Davis last year, simply because it looked like a signboard but shot so perfectly. It was amazing this year to see their 7disk autonomous on Einstein. Also, it was really nice talking to their mentor.
