Re: Custom Drive Stations
This is the driver station that I built for my team back when I was a student several years ago. The top has velcro to secure all of the controls and laptop, and the whole top piece comes off to allow you to get inside the box and manage all the wires. The lights only turn on when the driver station is plugged in correctly. It is make out of 1/8" acrylic with aluminum supports along the top and 1/4" acrylic on the bottom. The ends are laser engraved with the team name and number. The velcro on the top allows us to change out the controls from year to year depending on the game and robot, and since these pictures were taken we have switched out the laptop for a Macbook.
