//Team Strategy: The Concept Design Review (CoDR) will be held Wednesday, Jan 11. This is where we decide our team strategy which is what the team (robot + human players) will do in a typical game. This is the WHAT. The HOW will be decided or narrowed down to a couple of ideas for each IPT by the end of Week 2. IPTs will be formed by the captains this week. Below is a list of ideas for initial IPTs.// __Shooter's Solution IPT__ -- this is mostly a software IPT, where a camera can recognize the square and calculate a distance. We need this by next week (Wednesday?) __Autonomous Solution IPT__ -- how do we implement whatever out autonomous strategy will be? __Shooting IPT__ -- how could we shoot and aim a ball? (if that is part of the strategy) __Bridge/Barrier Crossing IPT__ -- how do we get across mid-field (unless the strategy is to always stay at the end) __Ball retrieval IPT__ -- how do we acquire balls? (off the ground, capable of receiving thrown balls the last 30s) __Chairman IPT__ -- we have to prepare 3 things: essays, a pit display that communicates our message, train our team to talk to those judges that roam around. What we present in each of these three things depends on our strategy. There should be a detailed strategy developed by Saturday. __End Game IPT__ -- depending on what our end game strategy is, how do we make it happe || __**Autonomous Systems**__ Drive forward and drop 3 balls in lower baskets Hybrid Score by shooting from key Drive forward and shoot in top baskets Shoot from key or around field for higher baskets Go get balls from field Dropping balls on top of robot
 * __Drivetrain IPT__ -- they should be formed Wednesday and should propose their drivetrain solution to be selected by Saturday, and then start building it Saturday
