Designing the Robot
Not sure what forum this is supposed to be so...

How is your design phase dealt with?

I ask this because the past two years (the years I have been on the team) we have had what we call "design by committee". Groups of 3 or 4 students go off and design certain parts of the robot ie. shooter, gathering, chassis, ect. and then everyone comes back, presents their idea, and we decide from there. The problem we have with this is that our team can't agree on anything. So we're looking into changing the way we designing the robot.

How do you do it, and what are your thoughts on it?

I didn't make this a poll because I couldn't possibly name all of the design styles that teams do. So please specifiy the way your team does it.

Thanks
