Build season is the heart of the FRC year. It is the 45 days during which the team's students and mentors put their hearts, minds and hands into designing and building a great robot. Paradoxically, the time seems both far too short and much too long.
This page contains a day by day breakdown of what we did. Dates hyper-links go to the corresponding photo gallery.
Kickoff
- On Saturday, January 7th, team 1640 students, parents and mentors drove to Upper Darby High School on to watch the events from Dean Kamen’s home in New Hampshire, see the objectives of the 2012 game revealed, examine a mock-up of this year’s play pieces up close, and pick up our kit of parts.
- We attended seminars immediately following the Logomotion Kickoff.
- The Team returned to Creamery Way following Kickoff for a read-through of Rebound Rumble's rules.
- Set up the field and ran Student-bot simulations
