With less than three weeks until the start of the 2012 FRC season, FRC Designs is presenting a challenge to all FRC Teams:
Make a commitment to design your robot in CAD and submit your design to FRC Designs.
Computer Aided Design (CAD) is a useful tool that allows your team to design, prototype, and create your entire robot. For examples of full robot and subsystem CAD, check out the FRC Designs website. There are three main CAD software programs including Autodesk Inventor, Solidworks, and Pro E.
The goal of FRC Designs is to create a continuous improvement of competition among teams in future FRC competitions. This collaborative effort will give teams the ability to innovate on solutions that have been successfully used in previous competitions.
Will your team commit to FRC Designs? Please reply to this thread to show your commitment and thoughts about FRC Designs.
Your commitment will also be posted on the FRC Designs 2012 Page here. Thanks for your help!
