Hi, My name is Andrew Weissman Aweissman7 and I am part of the Downingtown Robotics Team. I have experience dealing with electronics and am being educated in mechanics. I was a human player for FRC Downingtown Area Team 1640 "Sab-BOT-age" and I was a a part of the drive team for the 2011 off-season and the 2012 season. I am a part of the design, mechanical, and electrical teams, as well as training human players/inbounders.
