JVN: The Engineering Design Process & Competition Robotics

[AlexD744]

Why on Wednesday, we're arriving at about 10 o clock that night. When I looked at the conference schedule I saw Karthik and your presentation and said, those are presentations I want to see, then I looked at the agenda and our flight schedule.

I'm saying YAY to them being on wednesday. The Thursday morning ones I can't make at all.

[Josh Goodman]

I will be there! I can't wait!

I just want to say "thank you" to all who attended my presentation. I had a fun time and hope everyone enjoyed themselves. I think this may be a presentation worth giving again. I already have some improvements in mind.

Is the presentation up online somewhere?

[David Sherman]

It was a great presentation! The lights going on and off were a tad bit distracting but there was so much good information in the presentation.

[Nawaid Ladak]

I ended up taking about 5-6 pages of notes during this presentation... Im planning on starting my own rookie team and all this information should be VERY helpful when in the building process of the robot

JVN, thank you for a excelent presentation, it was well worth our time, I hope you do another one next year (maybe i could get this "planned" rookie team to attend and see where most of their build season processes/steps/precedures came from )

John, can you post the presentation somewhere?

Nawaid and David, can you post your notes? It could be a great discussion starter for those of us that did not make it to the session.

(Hey John, this could be a boost to your retirement plan. You could sell the boxed DVD set and if people act NOW they can get a free JVN doll!)

3rd'ed on the online presentation. I missed this presentation b/c we had an FTC pit to setup and a FRC robot to uncrate with only 2 people . I'm glad I went to Raul's (I can now create a small interactive pneumatic lecture series for Fall that uses real numbers rather than just diagrams), but wish I would have also been able to attend this one. Choices, choices, choices....

There's still no word on where the presentations will be put online though -- we can assume WPI's site? I know they've put actual videos up before, and for this lecture that's what I'm seeking. PowerPoints are nice, but 6 pages worth of notes means that someone is a good note taker and didn't just write down what's on the slides!
