Week One Recap

Game Strategy
image
We decide this year to focus the most on L4 and L2 coral scoring as well as being able to achieve deep climb.

Design Prototypes
image
We landed on a design prototype that would be two hinged forks for our deep climb and a claw with intake and outtake wheels on an elevator. The claw is able to do floor pick up for coral and algae. It is able to shoot into the processor and net and all the levels on the reef in theory.
