FRC Designs presents Behind the Design!

Behind the Design: There have been many robots over the years that have been effective and unique to FRC competitions. FRC Designs will periodically feature these robots from different FRC competition seasons. The articles produced include descriptions, pictures and videos to demonstrate effective and unique robot functions.

This thread is intended to create a forum for discussion on the robots in the Behind the Design articles.

Read and Post! I look forward to the discussion!

I love this idea. I’m still said that they don’t make those books anymore.

Would it be possible to make the pictures link to full size versions? I would love to use these in presentations to new team members when talking about old robot games and designs.

Thanks for the encouragement! You should be able to Right Click > View Image to make a picture full size. Remember too that the pictures in this article are from 2004. Picture resolution was not as good as it is now. Thanks again!

When you say Periodically, you mean every day right :ahh:? :wink:

Quick Question:
How do you convert the .step file into a viewable file?

-Thanks!

Edit:: I use inventor, if that is a factor.

Just open the file, and under the name search bar you should see an option if what formats to show. There will be an option in the drop down menu for step files.

This seems like an awesome idea, I expect great things from this.
