Programming
The programming team consists of three people, some with prior knowedge. The programming team is using RobotC to code the NXT robot. The mechanisms would be programmed to complete and fulfill multiple tasks involving this year's challenge.
Build Team
Drive
The drive team creates the basic and necessary chassis of the robot. This includes siderails, a bellypan, and wheels. Prior to manufacturing the final product, the entire drive base was modeled in SolidWorks.

Scoring
In order to score balls, the scoring team has to transport the balls from the lift to the rolling goal. This can be obtained using an extended tube. They completed a model in SolidWorks that was incorporated with the other mechanisms.

Intake
The intake team is in charge of creating a mechanism that has multiple functions. The main goal is to be able to pick up balls and transfer them to the lift. We hope that it can later serve as a trailer to drag around a rolling goal. We built a model to scale using Solidworks to help us with our build.

Lift
The lift team designs and works on a mechanism that is capable of lifting balls . The lift team then builds a model of the lift in SolidWorks then later added to the final model in SolidWorks before the building of the physical product.
