Re: 2005 RadioShack Innovation In Control Award--What Won?

Team 836 won the Radioshack Innovation and Control Award at the Chesapeake regional. We won this award through our autonomous mode chooser. I am not totally sure how it works, but it is a series of switches mounted toward the front of the robot, each switch was a different operation in auto mode, however we had it setup so that you can do multiple operations during auto mode. And these switches or any combination of switches could be set at any time. So all we had to do was set the start position, then a task or two or three, for example hanging tetra, then left loader or right loader. Additionally we extruded the program and reset buttons to a safe and accessible spot.
This is the second time team 836 has won this award but not for the same thing.
