Intake

The Intake team has continued to work on their gripper and claw mechanism this past week. They have tested several materials for their claws to help with weight. They have also worked on the out of bumper portion by testing ways to move the system to the game pieces instead of the other way around.

Handling

The Handling team has finalized their elevator and the programming team has code working that will set the elevator to a position. They have also continued to work on their gravity counterbalancing arm to make the arm “weightless”. The team plans to begin CAD for the design and begin manufacturing a final arm design.
