Hi all, we’re excited to announce that we’re starting a new Robot in 3 Days team at the University of Tennessee called Big Orange Robotics!
Most of our members are FIRST alumni who want to give back to FRC teams. While we think Robot in 3 Days is a good tool to engage FIRST alumni, we’re focusing on using it as a tool to inspire and teach FRC teams.
A thank you to our sponsors who are making this possible: Tennessee Valley Robotics, Bechtel, Rev Robotics, and AndyMark. We also want to thank UT’s Tickle College of Engineering for hosting our team, and TNFIRST for helping our team out with fundraising.
We’ll be posting small updates on social media, sharing more in-depth videos on YouTube, and also publishing whitepapers about our robot after it has been finished.
As a note, we will not be doing a livestream, but we will be answering questions online that are posted in this thread or asked on social media.
Not a lot for our media team to cover right now with a lot of work being done on mechanisms. We decided to talk about some of the behind-the-scenes stuff that happens with our team, including food, sleeping, and picking up emergency parts.
