ABOUT THE REAPERS
Robotics is an integration of various fields of sciences like mechanical, Electronics & communications, Computer Science , Electrical and various sciences. We the young humans of boy scout troop 45 http://troop-45.org/ came up with this robotics team after completing the robotics merit badge to bring out the creativity talents, of the individual and also to provide extra knowledge on innovative edges. We are a US first robotics FTC team the main motto is to make use of theoretical knowledge on a technical front. We meet at a secret research facility hidden deep with in a forest away from prying eyes of those who would oppose our robotic creations. Our autonomous robots are a inspiration from biological earth forms and creative ideas of alien life forms. We are The Reapers Team # 5952 of Earth ,third rock from the Sun in the galaxy we call the milky way .

The robotics team meets where we will make robots together and discuss about them. The robots may be quite simple like manual controlled robot, differential robot, and complex types like automated line tracer, obstacle tracers, the secret research facility provides the workspace and tools, intellectually simulating conditions and mentors to help the team out if we have any problems. Our team has a "Tool Bot" to carry our tools to competitions the photo below is Adam the owner of this unusual robot driving it to the University of Memphis for a week long robot summer camp . |

THE REAPERS FTC TEAM # 5952
It is important for us to know robotics past history where we as young engineers don't waste time
trying to reinvent the wheel.
"Everyone is capable of doing extraordinary things, each in his own way. Some are perfectly happy doing simple things in good spirits; others, however, concentrate on details. We are all different, and it really doesn’t matter if you focus on space travel or work in the fields. What is important is to do what you really want." Alexander Kemurdzh

Wow the robot kit arrived today in the mail time to get busy.
Time for reading the manual and inventory the parts !
 ,
Lets get busy practicing building with the robot kit , there are hours of building
played out in the guide book .
Remember Kids :
" THIS IS YOUR ROBOT KIT , THERE ARE MANY OTHERS LIKE IT BUT THIS ONE IS OURS .
OUR ROBOT KIT IS MY BEST FRIEND . I MUST MASTER IT AS I MASTER MY LIFE. WITHOUT ME
MY ROBOT KIT IS USELESS !
Live long and prosper , resistance is futile !
This is the Robot library we have access to use .
Gotta keep those hand and eye coordination skills flying high.
Stress testing the Tool Bots robotic base is a fun way to learn.
Some assemble required.
Camping at the Army National Guard base Chattanooga TN. summer 2012 .
Hiked 10.5 miles at Chickamauga National Military Park summer 2012.
