Team 118 The Robonauts; the making of Empire

FIRST Robot Showcase
#1

The Robonauts would like to present their 2015 build season time lapse.

This season, the Robonauts return to our original home at the Johnson Space Center’s Building 9 highbay after being at JSC’s Neutral Buoyancy Lab for over a decade. In addition to being the Robonaut’s new (and old) home, many of the Robonaut’s mentors design, build and test space robots in this same area. Astronauts train at the other end of the building.

As an added bonus, approximately 500,000 Space Center Houston visitors will be exposed to FIRST as they pass through building 9.

Very jealous of your facility.
Correct me if I’m wrong but from the looks of it there doesn’t seem to be a working prototype reminiscent of your final robot design until week 6.

Are you willing to share in more detail than in the video what goes on each week or are we gonna have to just decipher it through the video?

Great video nonetheless.
