Robotics team putting the final touches on their new project.

The Robotics team has developed a very exciting creation, one that is sure to be a hit with our crowds: a motorized t-shirt launcher!

“We really wanted something cool to interact with the crowd,” senior project manager, Cesar Solano, said.

Although the idea seemed simple, the team went through some difficulties making it become a reality.

“There’s a lack of school funding for our private projects,” Solano said, “and it was difficult sometimes assembling the robot itself–working with the air pressure, wiring, making sure it was safe to use were some of the problems we encountered.”

However, the team pulled through and made their idea a reality.

“It will finally be ready this Friday for the jungle pep rally,” senior project helper, Daniel Hernandez, said. “It will be painted and ready to go.”
