2010 FRC Excellence in Design Award Entry: Darwin’s Electronics

Project Overview | Full Robot Assembly | Drivetrain | Kicker | Electronics


The electronics package on Darwin is very tame by some FRC team standards.  However, having committed to a compact robot footprint provided a formidable challenge to fin everything in well.  At the heart of this package is a light and robust box made of a single piece 1/16″ polycarbonate, folded and attached to the chassis for fit and strength.  While compact, the electronics package includes the axis camera, two shaft encoders, a gyro, and an accelerometer to provide an array of programming and autonomous possibilities.
