[Behind the Lines] Ep. 5 Mechanism Design with 118, 3847, and 973!

[Francis-134]

Join GameSense and FIRST for the fifth episode of Behind the Lines season 2, LIVE Wednesday 12/02/15 at 9-10 PM ET!

This week, we’ll be talking about mechanism design with our three awesome guests:

Lucien Junkin: from FRC 118 on Intakes
Allen Gregory: from FRC 3847 on Shooters
Adam Heard: from FRC 973 on Arms

These long time mentors are going to share their years of experience with all of FIRST on how to design effective mechanisms from a non-game-specific perspective.

Drivetrains are always the most popular project to try in the off-season, mostly because it's really hard to design a mechanism without knowing the game. Our guests are going to show you the basics you need to know about shooting, collecting, and manipulating objects for whatever Stronghold throws our way. Don't spend the first week of build season relearning how to collect, pickup, or score. You will not want to miss this hour-long show!
