Sub-Teams

Business Team:
"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain." -Wizard of Oz

That's what the business team is, the man behind the curtain. They take care of all the necessary and day-to-day business that enables the team to function. They are the backbone to the team. You may not be able to see how they work, but with out them, all non-robot aspects of the team would crumble.

Chassis:
The responsibility of the Chassis Team is the drivetrain. They're in charge of making the Robot move from Point "A" to Point "B". This includes construction of the wheels, chain, transmission, and chassis frame structure.

Above Chassis:
Above Chassis is responsible for anything above the chassis. This does not include the end effector.

Special Projects:
In 2008, Team RUSH added a new build group - the special projects team. They are focused on working on projects to help educate the community through interactive displays on big ideas.

Programming:
The programming team ties all the pieces of the robot together so that they may function to achieve their goals. Another key task of the programming team is to make the controls as user-friendly as possible.

12 Volt:
The 12 volt subteam is responsible for wiring the robots in a clean and efficient way.

Advanced Electronics:
Advanced Electronics was designed with the goal of pushing the limits of Team RUSH’s technology standards and taking them to a new level.

Website Team:
The website team is responsible for maintaining and updating our website.
