The course was structured in a way that allowed for our team's lack of high level technical knowledge (since it was a team of freshman), to not hinder our ability to fully utilize our problem solving skills and work through the full design experience. Because of the low technical barrier, the success of our team was highly correlated to our raw, creative problem solving abilities.

Sprints and Deliverables
The project was run in sprints, according to the SCRUM methodology, which lasted anywhere from one to three weeks in length.
|
Each sprint ended in a deliverable, which came in the form of either a technical presentation or a physical demonstration of the robot's functionality.
|
Our team successfully met each of the deadlines/sprint goals, and, according to the professors, had produced the most functional robot at the time of each of the demonstrations.
