Re: Advice- Too many Programmers?

My suggestion is to run many more programming projects that are not necessarily for the robot.

Off the top of my head, the programmers on Team Appreciate work on the following:

Zero Robotics (3-8 people) - Robotics competition that involves programming a robot to compete in zero-g environments. This year's competition

Team Website (2-5 people) - Building a professional website is a lot of work and there should be dedicated programmers that work on this. Building a clean, presentable website (like 254 or 148's) is a very useful skill to have after high school.

Scouting System (3-8 people) - We have tried making scouting apps to run on Androids, Apple products, and off of a laptop. There's a lot of work that can go into building a really good scouting system for your team.

Programming Helpers (any number) - These students learn how to code in a language that the team doesn't use so that they can help out newer teams in competition with their autonomous/drive code.

Hope the suggestions help!
