Re: What are your Summer Plans

I'll be tracking Cold Classical KBOs in the Kuiper Belt at Cal Poly SLO this summer. I'll also be helping design/build our offseason robot and fundraise for the team.

If I'm lucky, I'll also get to help raise a baby falcon for the second year in a row. Looks like a busy summer

Yup only reason I have all these opportunities is through friend's friend's friend's friend's parent's, and through whole other really long and annoying "political" channels. But hey, the end result is worth it

Re: What are your Summer Plans

1) Learn this crazy new job.
2) Learn this crazy new state.
3) Remember all the things I haven't flipped to my new address. Fix those.
4) Find a team near me where I can make an impact. 13 years in, I don't know any other way.
5) IRI, for business and/or pleasure.

Thanks, I was thinking of doing a solo one on how I interpreted scouting data on the team along with a strategy talk during competition (covering alliance selection and such..) basically it would be more in-depth of what I did as the team strategist and what more I/the team could of could've done. I'll definitely contact goFIRST if I'm set on an idea.

As for scouting/strategy, I'm sure 2052 will present it again at SRS with newer members to take over the presenter roles for experience purposes since the 2 seniors who annually presented are graduating.

Re: What are your Summer Plans

I'm working at Lockheed Martin as an Intern. It's going to be great to get a real look at how the company works.

As for FRC, I'm trying to replicate 254's vision code and app. As well as working on more advanced control systems for the team such as motion profiling and trajectory following.

I have to say, that's pretty sick. I'd love to hear how it went after the summer!

Re: What are your Summer Plans

A few off season events (Beantown Blitz. Midknight Mayhem. IRI. Maybe a couple more...) Hang out with friends on the other weekends I'm not roboting. Maybe finally get the webcomic started up. Survive another month at work somehow....
