Project Description
Robo-Football Demonstration and Competition Development
• Intercollegiate robotic “football” competition to encourage interest in science and engineering
• Develop robot-based game with elements similar to American Football
• Develop rules of the game and design robot(s) to demonstrate its fundamental features and technology for the game
Previous Week’s Action Items
Item 1 : Narrowing Concept Scope– Open ended project resulted in many ideas for possible
concepts– Group discussion led to choice of a game concept involving
various types of robo-players: quarterback, kicker, receiver, lineman, defensive back
– Will prototype the quarterback
Item 2: Website Creation– None of the team members knew how to make site– Jamie began creation of HTML site– Group discussion of layout and necessary links
Current Status
Current Graphic– Individual Concept Sketches
Design Status– Chosen our concept, a game with various players– Will prototype the quarterback
Schedule– On schedule after initial feeling of being behind due to the
open ended nature of the project
Next Week’s Action Items
Item 1: Concept and Design Requirement Refinement– Further define concept and prototype– Add to product design requirements– Brainstorm possible trade studies
Item 2: Further Website Development– Make site fully functional with all necessary links and pop up
menus– Update all current documentation– Include site introduction, team photos, and bios
