Team 19531
We learn how to build robotics with certain parts, and obtaining new skills from the experience.
Coding our robot so that we are able to do a portion of the challenge that is autonomous. As well as the proper controls to drive our robot in the challenge.
Our team also reaches out into the community whether that be through social media or through sponsors in our community. We are excited to meet sponsors and get people interested in the FTC Powerplay Community
Braedon Douglas is a grade 12 farm kid from Leamington. He is part of his own farming community and participates in 4H. He raises his own livestock: pigs, cows, and chickens. He has previous robotics expertise from his years here at UMEI. He is skilled in building, and is always adding creative, and out of the box ideas. He assembles the parts, and in a way is our very own mechanic.
Cody Konrad is a grade 12, and is also a farm kid from the country. He is loyal to his team, and loves adding ideas into creative discussions. He has also had robotics at UMEI, and enjoys the building aspect of robots. Cody will be our second driver, since he has practice and enjoys the behind the curtain controls.
Isabel Neufeld is a grade 12 student who has taken robotics at UMEI, and throughly enjoyed it. Although some of the other members do most of the building, there is no stopping her from sharing new ideas. Organizing is one of her strong suits, and she has been managing and has been working in the background. Working on social engagement and getting our team recognized.
Mason Fittler is a grade 12 student who is well versed in all things robotics. He is able to keep the team realistic, and know our limits on what we can do. He is practical and the team relies on this aspect. He is a skilled builder and programmer. Recently he has been working behind the scenes to get the team off its feet, and reaching out into the community.
Ryan Friesen is a grade 12 Student, and he has worked hard in the robotics courses offered at UMEI. He has enjoyed the courses and learned skills to harness in the upcoming FTC challenge. He is working on logistics for the team, and learning the rules and aspects of the challenge. He is a key component of out team, and is able to keep our robot from getting the least amount of penalties.
Mr. Fittler is our robotics teacher at UMEI, and has taught the team all there is to know about robots. He guides the team into making carefully thought out decisions, and managing the account to ordering the parts that we need. He has helped each member out with the roles we have, and his experience is irreplaceable.
