What do you do on your team?

[bear24rw]

Just interested to see how diverse the people on delphi really are.. is it mostly programmers who are here? Mostly endeffectors? drivetrain?

[Ericgehrken]

I think it's mostly computers and webmaster on Chief Delphi but the mechanical designers come to see what other teams are doing.

you may want to add video to the list. many teams have dedicated video people like mine. I am the video team leader for my team and i also help out with electrical and some prototyping. alot of people assume that since I am a video person i kno2 nothing about actually building robots

im not a programmer im new to the team. As a team we talk about strategy engineering fund raising and communication

[StephLee]

On our team, everyone sort of helps with everything since we're (relatively) small and not everyone comes to all the meetings. People are starting to specialize more this year, though.

Personally, I deal with the overall strategy and the awards essays, but the strategy makes me want to have a hand in the design and building, as well. So I guess I deal with a little bit of almost everything.

[Scion13]

I'm head of the devices team and also in charge of overall strategy. I'm also the coach at the competitions.

I'm not a rookie and I don't know what that means.

That being said...

I'm on the Chassis Design/Build team, the Pneumatics build team, and going to be the 675 webmaster soon.

Quite a bit for a second-year member, methinks.

I might even offer to be a Human Player, too.

Safety Captain in da' house!

I love being a safey captain but I also stretch into mechanical stuff (when I'm in the mood )

How many other safety captains are there following chief delphi?

[TravisE]

I'm a programmer and I wish i was a safety captain because last year i was yelling at people left and right about safety glasses that includes mentors,team members, visitors, and etc.

[MattLi]

So....what was that about CD being just programmers? I think that most people are either a mix of everything or just fall under the catagory of "other" because their division is not on the poll. I for one really classify as "field builder." I build the mock field every year. And I'm drive train too (I guess).

[AV_guy007]

an endefficator is the device that actually interfaces with the gamer piece. for example a claw or a grabber of some sort.

again more proof that as a video guy i still know a lot about robots ( see first post)

[TravisE]

lol wow that was really lame and funny lol

[MattLi]

So another name for endefficator is "maker of the robot's arm?" Why not just make it that simple for us vocab challenged people.

This year I am one of the electrical teams co-leads. I also know some stuff on mechanical and drives and help them out every once in awhile.
