CAD & Design
Sub teams were created for each main component, including gear holding, ball pickup, shooting, and rope climbing. Work began on prototypes for each system.
Sullivan Stuehrmann, CAD Lead
A prototype for the wheeled shooter was worked on. It is a single wheel shooter which sits in a guide to propel the ball at the desired angle. Not much progress was made on this prototype in CAD.

Programming
-We set up a camera/LED ring/router to begin vision testing. We hope to find an equation for distance based on the target information. -After some initial networking issues, we got it working. We did not, however, have enough time to start collecting data. We will continue tomorrow. -We also discovered that the web dashboard for the radio is not accessible when configured with the FRC firmware.
