Because of Covid our team did not have access to robot KITS or the field to design our robot. So we designed our robot virtually as a team. Caden was our lead designer, so he took the helm at LEGO studio while team members all gave ideas and design input. Here is a video of how that worked.
The team started the process by laying our the individual robot components in Studio - moving them around to see where they make the most sense. Once the major components where in place. Next we started to attach the components with beams and pins inside Studio. Once we had something we all felt good about Caden and Dale worked together over zoom to build the robot for real. From there we analyzed the structural strength. and made revisions to improve the durability.
