WPI Robotics 1001 VEX Challenge

WPI Robotics 1001 VEX Robotics Challenge
For WPI's intro to robotics course, teams of 3 were tasked with creating a robot using various VEX components to compete in a challenge. This years challenge was to collect wooden squares around the field and deposit them in slots of varying heights.

During the project, I was responsible for task management, mechanical design, sensor integration, and one of the autonomous programs. 

This project spanned 5 weeks and was scheduled through a gannt chart which helped keep my team on task and accountable.
