hey everybody
welcome to the Crevolution robotics video blog my name Ben
up its about middle of fall we're getting ready for a pre-season
morning my jacket and my hat on
take are built site at RoseKidd elementary or velocity junior
and this is where some stem classes are offered
in the summer here for junior high students and elementary students
to help them get interested in science technology
engineering and mathematics so let's go over there to that
building beyond yonder and we will find the Crevolution build site
also I wanna give a shout out giving the camera this is Logan he's my partner
"Hey peeps" Okay also no one calls it a video blog it's a Vlog
it's a video blog it's a vlog this is gonna be serious and gonna be funny
let's go! Logan: do you want to cut it? Me: No were doing this live!
We're doing this blair witch were doing it live
Rose Kidd Elementary okay so happens
is Rose Kidd elementary which is this is (Points to wall) Was a Utica Community School that
the Utica Community School District actually let's us use
through our build season whenever we need it. We just call him up say "Hey
we're gonna need to use the build site" and inside is a world of magic
where community and determination
and a buncha stuff just comes together to make magic
and robots and fun and you guys this is just going to be awesome to see this. Come on
let's go
(It's like an outta breath Hallmark Card)
The first thing you do is go through some doors. Okay we're inside and this is our
wonderful
artwork. Here are the doors that you walkthrough
and what you do first is what every member does
Notice we have these wonderful head protectors here. If were to take my hat off
it would protect my head. Also here is where you sign in
with your name and your time in and your time out
this helps us kinda make sure members are appearing at the team meetings when
they need to.
and keep track of everyone who's on the team whose here what day
Crevo flag : American flag
so here's our kind work area which is a little bit quieter than
the noisy build sometimes so let's first go to john
over here who is
designing
john what program are you using to ldesign
"Solid Works" So your using Solid works what are you doing right now
I am downloading a piston. Downloading a piston what would we use a piston for
ROBOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What part of the robot would use a piston john?
Well are robot this year used a numeric piston to
pull itself up on the ten-point bar. Okay so there's something you would probably
need to use in every robot that uses a piston
yeah. Oh okay let's go over to some other hard workers over here
kaitlyn What are you working on hard-working
Right now I'm working on a general script
for people who want to call companys to get sponsorship and it basically
outlines what you would want to say and so they don't freak out
Oh okay so you wanna keep cool like that and not mess up. Okay and
are sponsorship important to robotics. Of course if we didn't have any sponsors we wouldn't be able to pay
for any supplies or enter in any of the competitions
or enter in any of the competitions. Okay so Sponsors are a major part and
every member including logan your lovely cameraman, myself kaitlyn, and john
all have to get sponsors. So let's move on the some of the other members of the team. "It'slight kaitlyn's done this twice
already"
down here we have are lovely build site If you can do a panoramic view if you want
we have some FTC teams right here what are are some junior high teams
consisting of teams that we are trying to mentor this year
help coach long their season and everything there is actually a competition
We're hosting a local junior high
we're going to help out there so here we have crevolution members something with
a field that we're actually having in our build site right now
If you follow me
This is the field we're going to use as you can see there's a special
pad that is used to make up the field and make it out
wood and homemade supplies and that's where those sponsorships really come in
because that where you get some ofthe community and funds just really make all the stuff
true and happen
as you can see some the FTC teams right now are sitting up there to have some practice
runs
and they can just come in while the build site is open and say "Hey we need to
work on something"
and they can work on it and it's really of but a large one of our other
people over here (Not Connor )
Danny! What?
okay so these are some Crevolution people Danny what you have to say
What do I have to say about wha? Ask about the FTC team
the field the game can you explain any of this
this year the game is called "block party" yeah
these blocks I believed 100 of them
Wow that's a lot. Spread through out and you gotta build a robot. If you pan to the
field. That means pan to the field. Pan to
the field. Sorry Connor gave me info
sweet scores lives there is
scored
some box Brendan
space waxed
yesterday on a bard
just like in real life I see competition
we must never Scottish robots are 8
cue Srikant max to start out with by
when they grow after that yes they can K
grow exponentially 0 well let's see what ferry
cost very complicated very awesome starred
big anche
okay well big finish here on this is the first episode of our blog
video blog whatever your social media terminology preferences
John's over there laughing I had a good time ok learn something
will be here for episode two impact your rainfall knowledge in everything
is gonna be super awesome Ben shining of like by
