My contribution:

Leadership:

  • Managed the research and development process in the areas of computing, electronics and mechanics.
  • Led a team of four team mates during the development period of both competitions (team technical training, deadline management, sponsorship and project promotion)

Results:

  • In both years the robots met the requirements.
  • In 2016, we held the 1st position (among 40 teams) in the state of São Paulo competition stage.
  • In 2015 and 2016 we received the award for best private school team in the state of São Paulo.
