cRi3D INFINITE RECHARGE Strategy and Research

cRi3D INFINITE RECHARGE Strategy and Research

With a thorough understanding of the this season’s game and game manual along with tools discussed in Part 1 – Game Theory we are ready to talk strategy!

Strategery

Now that we have a tool to evaluate the optimal scoring of an FRC game we can add constraints to our rational agent (for example, the robot is only allowed to operate on ground level) and approximate the scoring…

cRi3D INFINITE RECHARGE Game Theory

cRi3D INFINITE RECHARGE Game Theory

Game Theory is a tool used in several fields of science including Political Science and Economics.  For this article a very simplified version will be used where the model consists of a rational agent (it always chooses to perform the action with the optimal expected outcome for itself from among all feasible actions) competing in a mathematically defined competition.

To put it more plainly,…

cRi3D DEEPSPACE The Reveal

Ready to wrap up #DestinationDeepSpace with our Robot Reveal? Then join us as we reveal our #cRi3D or, Conceptual Robot in Three Days! #omgrobots #Ri3D

We used the tools discussed in Part 1 – Game Theory to determine our strategy in Part 2 – Strategy and Research which allowed us to defined our Robot Requirements in Part 3 – Robot Requirements for this season’s game (and game manual).  Now we are ready to build a robot.

cRi3D DEEPSPACE Robot Requirements

Ready to dive into #DestinationDeepSpace with a some Robot Requirements? Then join us as we begin Part Three of our #cRi3D or, Conceptual Robot in Three Days! #omgrobots #Ri3D

We used the tools discussed in Part 1 – Game Theory to determine our strategy in Part 2 – Strategy and Research for this season’s game (and game manual). Now we are ready to define our Robot REQuirements (REQ).

Requirements

In engineering/business, requirements are the building blocks of a new product.  A requirement is a clearly defined and measurable function of the product.  When…
