Crossroads In Review

Posted on April 12, 2013 by Will

As you probably already know, the Crossroads Regional in Indiana marked the last regional of the 2012-2013 season this year for Team 48. Friday’s Opening Ceremonies started off with a “Team 48″ inspired surprise by including our very own senior team member Gabriel Talanca singing the national anthem for all of Indiana (and FIRST) to hear, LIVE. Stellar job to Gabe for releasing his inner virtuoso and showing what our team is made of!

Onto the results of the regional. First off, shout out to our Safety Captain Justina Gazso who won “Safety Star of the Day”. This award takes tremendous effort and countless “safety surveillance” of our teams’ everyday procedures. Justina did an excellent job in enforcing safety to a multitude of other teams and showing to other teams what a “real pit” looks like. Speaking of safety, Team 48 won ANOTHER safety award. Our team won second place in the “Safest Pit” Award and received a Hard Hat Pin in recognition of our stellar safety procedures.

The drive team did an excellent job in keeping up with the other robots and shooting a multitude of points. Team 48, by the end of all the qualification matches on Saturday Afternoon,  did not make it into the “Top 10 seeded teams” in order to qualify to be an alliance captain and pick out the other teams to be on our alliance. However, Team 48 was picked and made it to the elimination matches. Our team made it to the Semi-Final matches with ease; but in the end lost two times in a row, knocking us out of the rankings for the regional and the chance to go to St. Louis for the Nationals.

Our OPR (offensive power rating) has, however, jumped to season high of 45  - a reflection of the hard work and dedication of all team members to improve both robot and drive team performance from event to event.The whole team has worked non stop this whole year in trying to build, design, scout, promote, document and battle our way to victory and defiantly deserves a round of applause for a tremendous season. Way to go Team!

Did you miss out on Gabriel’s surprising start to the regional? No worries! Click here and be prepared to fill your ear buds with the wonderful singing of the National Anthem, Talanca style.

The King of The Queen City Regional

Posted on March 20, 2013 by Will

If you didn’t know, Team 48 Delphi E.L.I.T.E is going to be attending the Queen City Regional taking place in Cincinnati,  Ohio. This regional is very important because we will be submitting our Chairmans video and essay to the judges. Our team is also trying to, with the help of our modifications that we have done, win first place at this regional competition. Either of these awards would automatically qualify our team to go onto the Robotics Championship that is taking place at Saint Louis this April.

Also taking place at this regional, Delphi E.L.I.T.E.’s Website Design team is video taping the live webcast for everybody to see sitting at their homes. Stay tuned into our website all this weekend to catch this exciting event LIVE!

We have to get up bright and early Thursday Morning… every team member should report to the school and on the bus ready to roll by 1:30am in order to get to the regional on time. Make sure to set your alarm clocks team, its going to be a busy morning!

Don’t know what the Chairmans award is? Not to worry! Check out our previous post: Chairmans Award, A Big Deal.

Lights, Camera, Robots!

Posted on March 17, 2013 by Will

The last two weeks have been a busy time for everyone behind the scenes on the robotics team. The A/V team has been working hard at trying to get up a Highlight video for the Fingerlakes Regional to broadcast some of our teams memorable acts; such as Tyce Gall’s famous pregame dance and the “Robotics Harlem Shake”. Each regional this year needs to have a highlight video to make sure all our robot memories are stored and not forgotten. The highlight video also serves as a chance to observe improvements that our team can do to ensure success in our robot competitions. That’s not all the A/V team has been up to! Some of the most cherished memories throughout the whole season will be taken and combined into an annual end of the year highlight video that has to be created by May. The video will be shown at our banquet imgresand transferred copies on CD’s will be given out to everyone on the team to take home and treasure.

 

The A/V team has also been trying to consolidate all the pictures and videos that were taken at the regional by putting them into an organized file at the school so there is easy access when trying to find certain events from each regional. By doing this, we are able to look at each year with ease and see how we have progressed in people and technology.

The A/V team is and will continue to work hard at the rest of the regional competitions until the season has come to an end.

Robot Withdrawal

Posted on March 8, 2013 by Will

Are you having a weird urge to go throw frisbees into slots? Have you been itching to pick up a wrench and start screwing in various random items?

If so, you may be having a very serious condition of ROBOT ADDICTION.

How do you cure this seriously horrible addiction?

You could tune into this weeks robotics Regional happening in New York City. Team 48 will not be attending this regional, but you can see many other teams with their robots participating from all over the country in the FIRST program just like us.

If you’re waiting to see our team go and participate, you may have to hold off a little longer. Our next regional is called the “Queen City Regional” and will be taking place in Cincinnati, Ohio. It will be taking place in approximately two whole weeks, that’s a whole 14 days! We are eagerly awaiting to feed our robot addiction as much as you are, so you are not alone.
