SAE Team Looking for a few good designers
Wanted: S/D/M, W/B/other, M/F/undisclosed for intimate, group encounters. Must enjoy pizza, getting dirty, and sensuous high adventure. Looking for commitment.
Like to move fast (how about 0-60mph in about 5 secs)? Want to kick some robo-butt now and then? Think you have some creative ideas?... Did you know you can become part of two award-winning design teams simply by saying "Yeah, I want to be part of that!".
The Formula SAE team is looking for recruits (especially underclassmen) to fill out this year's team. All students can participate in this annual autocross race car design competition. Last year's team of 20 students built a turbo-charged 90 hp wonder that could corner at 1.5 G's, reach 60 mph in under 5 secs, and stop on a dime (check it out in Higgins Lab 005)! This year's team is charged with designing and building an even faster and better car for the May national competitions in Pontiac MI.
WPI's First Robotics team is open to all
The FIRST Robotics team is also open to all WPI students as well as faculty, staff, and alumni. This team is entering its 10th year of national robotics competition. "Gompei 2000" (see him in Washburn Labs 108) is the latest effort designed and built by last year's 40-student WPI team (assisted by Mass Academy students). This 120 pound, 12v, remote-controlled macho-machine has dominated local tournaments since last
Spring and received national recognition for its control sophistication. Come 6 Jan 2001, we need to start building an entirely new 'bot for the Nationals in Orlando FL While both of these efforts include MQP and IQP project potential (as well as Independent Study Project credit), you do not need to register for credit to participate.
