Team 116 OI Adapter board

This season, Team 116 designed and built Operator Interface Adapter boards to make OI prototyping and wiring of switches and potentiometers very quick and easy.

We'll be at the NASA / VCU Regional, Richmond, VA and the Peachtree Regional, Duluth, GA.

Here's the Team 116 Operator Interface Adapter Board page with images, and I plan to add additional info later. And here's 2 adapter boards and a prototyping control panel in our team photo section.

It took a long time to hand-wire the boards, though it provided a good learning experience for soldering. Hopefully we'll be able to get PC boards made for next season.

and here's what it looks like (though the LED's are no longer in the design):
