This past weekend, we had the amazing opportunity to attend the CUE 2016 Fall Conference in Napa Valley, CA as a representatives of Chap Research. At the Student Showcase, we got to show off many of our projects, ranging from a research paper on 3D printed materials to an interactive game we'd programmed with magnetic wall-climbing robots. However, the best part of the conference was definitel...

We are now collecting down payments for FRC ChapRs, the FRC-compatible version of our ChapR remote control! Just as a bit of background, the pocket-sized device connects via Bluetooth to your roboRIO (using a Bluetooth dongle), then takes the place of the laptop by translating joystick data and sending it to your tele-op program. We’ve gotten a lot of interest in the ChapR, but we need commitments...

This Saturday, the electronics seminar will be held in room 131 from 9 AM - 4 PM. We will cover topics like voltage, capacitors, RC filters, diodes, AC voltage, and much more! Students who have not taken Physics or are currently in Physics 1 are encouraged to come the whole time, while students who have taken physics can come at 1 PM if they want to skip what they have learned in physics already. ...

Tech3dge, a tech news website, found one of our sites, the page for the ChapR (www.thechapr.com). They then asked if we could trade links, so now we're on their homepage!

After 7.5 hours of class, the second session of web development training is over! Thanks to everyone who came to learn; the seminar was a huge success, and hopefully everyone had as much fun as I did. Check out the page for the seminar itself here for the full curriculum and details of the seminar.
