This year's competition is a little different from the years before. I know everyone know that already, but my point is that because there won't be a much robot pushing against robots, the design doesn't require teams to aim for a really tough robot this year... but rather a delicate robot that can do things accurately. There are some teams out there who already started construction, but for us, we are choosing to make sure the design of the robot satisfy the range of parameter we decided at the beginning when we chose our strategy… That means lots of prototyping, lots of drafting/CADing, and not as much trying to build a working robot but to actually construct the robot out of the drawings and know it will work. So we are probably still in the prototyping phase.
