Engineering Pog

[CoreyC]

What is the best machine or thing you built? Anything you built and want to share. Me personally I would either go with a solar car that you can drive that I made or a robot that can shoot basketball hoops. Im very interested on what the people of eGO has built.

I do competitive robotics, so anything there really (One was a shooter robot, one was able to collect and stack objects, one im working on now is for glorified tic tac toe), but besides that, It would probably be a mini car that was used to transport potatoes while also using them as the energy source.

Sounds like a nitrosimp thing to do ngl

 

[DeerFat]

Best thing I've built is a boat that does everything

#1 doesn't float

#2 doesn't go forward

#3 doesn't go backwards

#4 is a submarine

#5 the motor died

Are you talking about First Inspires aka FTC, FRC, or FLL. If so I am a leader of a FRC and FTC team for my school.

CoreyC Nah I wish. I cover FRC (Poofs FTW) but my school only has a program in VRC, so I'm stuck with the tiny lads

ah vex. Its great you have it, most people dont get these kind of opportunity to do robotics in their schools. Vex is a cool way to start to understand engineering then you could move onto FTC (different school team) which is basically all metal and a milk crate size robot then you can get into FRC which is human size robots that does amazing tasks. I gotta say tho I think some Vex designs are more complex then FTC keep doing it man its hard work but really fun. You could prob apply for a team for FRC.

CoreyC There's a few teams in my area, but right now I am so busy that there's no way I could give 100% to everything I'm involved in. Maybe in the future I'll get into FRC, infinite recharge seemed like an interesting game

Best thing ive ever made.

Wooden car in shop three years ago

it broke as soon as the C02 kicked in. Pog

That is a very Pog thing you built.
