Revision as of 13:17, 21 November 2009

I am the Chief Roboteer for the VEX Robot Challenge teams at Downingtown. This is a full time job with ~45 roboteers for the 2009-2010 season.

I am also a Senior Mentor for FRC team 1640. My role on the team is Program Management, with the primary task of keeping the build moving forward.

I also work on the following sub-teams:

Electrical
Layout and design of the electrical subsystem with the students and then supervising the construction.


Programming
main()
{
  int version = 2;
  printf("Hello from DEWBot Robot! Version=%i \n", version);
}
(Actually we use LabView, but there is not an easy way to show a LabView VI, so you'll have to do with some C code.)


Mechanical
(righty tighty, lefty loosey)
I work mostly on creating jigs, forms and templates used to create the metal parts. Most of these items are made out of wood.


I'm a member of the Steering Committee, I'm the unofficial secretary for meeting minutes.

I've been working with Downingtown Robotics since 2007, I was a mentor on the initial FIRST Vex Challenge (FVC) team - 3150. In our first season we had 5 roboteers.

I started working on the big robot in 2007 as part of the electrical team for DEWBOT III.

I am also one of the leaders of STEMRobotics a non-profit organization with the goal of bringing competition robotics to middle and high school students in Southeastern Pennsylvania and Delaware. STEMRobotics is the sponsor or co-sponsor of VEX events in the area, including the Eastern Pennsylvania Regional Competition.

I'm also the webmaster for this site, contact me about problems.
