DEPARTMENTS
The 2024-2025 BoroBlasters FRC team consists of 55 students
working in departments on our Technical division.
Programming
This team is responsible for programming the different functions of the robot as well as its fully autonomous mode. They work mainly with Java order to fully utilize our robot's abilities for the competition. Finally, as a lesser function, this department is also in charge of all the team computers and our team's computer network.
Design
Design creates a detailed, virtual model of our robot and any custom parts needed using Autodesk software. This virtual model must be precise and gives our team the ability to calculate dimensions and part capability in a matter of seconds.Â
Electrical
Electrical designs, develops, and installs all electrical components of the robot. Working closely with other Technical departments, Electrical makes sure that the control board and various motors, sensors, wires, and the battery are working properly to allow the robot to function.
Mechanical
Mechanical is the primary constructor of the team robot as well as the general maintenance and repair of all robots from current and past seasons. They maintain a large tool shop, keep inventory of all parts, create/build new parts as needed, and educate all team members about how the robot works.
