On August 13th, Neutrino members set up an outreach booth at the Workiva facility to showcase our robot. Members engaged with passing by Workiva employees, explaining and answering questions about our team through presenting the game and touring the robot.
Thank you, Workiva, for sponsoring our team and supporting our mission!
On August 5th, Team Neutrino proudly showcased our innovative robot to representatives from John Deere, a renowned leader in the manufacturing of agricultural machinery. The atmosphere was filled with anticipation as we demonstrated the impressive capabilities of our robot, highlighting its sophisticated arm, versatile elevator, and agile swerve mechanism. Engaging with multiple John Deere employees, we not only answered their insightful questions but also posed our own to foster a collaborative discussion. The exchange was vibrant, allowing us to delve deeper into the possibilities of integrating our technology with their agricultural solutions.
Thank you, John Deere, for sponsoring and supporting us (also gifting us ice cream)!
On August 5th and 6th, members of Team Neutrino came together to participate in our first “Robot in 3 Hours” event. This event was structured similarly to the “Robot in 3 Days” program. We began by watching the kickoff video for the new season, titled UNEARTHED.
On the first day, we built all the mission models and viewed the Robot Game video. On the second day, we formed assigned teams to brainstorm the missions we would undertake, and we began programming and constructing attachments for the robot. At the end of the event, we held matches among all the teams and a mentor team. Everyone had a fantastic time, and it was a great opportunity for team bonding.
From August 5th to 7th, incoming students participated in Team Neutrino’s first Scouting Camp to learn more about the Scouting Subteam and its operations. For three days, students learned how to collect and analyze data, navigate the scouting app, create app layouts, and code with HTML. Thank you to those who attended, and we look forward to seeing you apply these skills in the future!
Over July 28-29th, incoming students participated in Team Neutrino’s Awards Camp to learn more about the Awards Subteam. Last year’s impact presenters led presentations about the different aspects of awards, such as the executive summary, impact essay, and presentation. Students learned more about these aspects through analyzing other teams’ essays and executive summaries and creating presentations on topics of their choice. On the last day, students presented their written scripts and wrapped up the camp by playing a fun Kahoot to review everything they learn in the past two days!
Thank you to all the students who attended! We’re excited to see how you apply what you’ve learned this season!
