What We Do

Texas A&M Robomasters Robotics is a student-run robotics project team. We are students from a variety of engineering backgrounds who are passionate about the development of robotics. Established in the Fall of 2018, our mission is to build robots for the annual international Robomasters Robotics Competition where we compete against universities from all over the world. Here, students develop skills and apply their technical knowledge in the development of our robots.

Learn About the Subteams

Hardware

The hardware subteams perform all aspects of the mechanical design and manufacturing of our robots, using industry-standard tools. Our organization comprises six different hardware subteams – Standard, Hero, Sentry, Engineer, Dart, and Aerial – each responsible for a robot that plays a unique role in the competition.

Code

All of the organization’s programming needs are met through our two code subteams. The Firmware subteam is responsible for code that governs the motion and controls for the robots, while the Software subteam is responsible for software that utilizes machine learning and AI to assist in targeting enemy robots. In addition to these responsibilities, both subteams work closely to program our Sentry, a fully autonomous robot that plays a key role in the competition

Electrical

The Electrical subteam is responsible for designing, simulating, and manufacturing custom electronic hardware using industry-standard tools, such as Altium Designer and SPICE simulators. The Electrical subteam’s main responsibilities are designing power-management systems, including a supercapacitor charger and other DC-DC converters. Additionally, they design custom wire-management devices and oversee the wiring of robots.

Marketing

Our Marketing subteam handles the organization’s community outreach, designs team merchandise, manages team social media, and reaches out to potential sponsors to fund the innovation and creation happening every day within the organization.
