X-51 Pictures
The x-51 project is an imagination of what it would be like to build a rover that would traverse of mars and pick up rocks for sampling.
What is the x-51 and what did my group do?The x-51 project is a project designed to put us in a realistic scenario that tests our limits. We had a task to create a robot that would pick up rocks and place them in containers on a specific budget. We planned out a robot that could easily pick up and place robots virtually anywhere. The problem we bumped into is that money is a big problem when it comes to making something happen.

What did I do?I was in charge of the budget, that illustrated every single cost that we had to spend on. It was surprisingly difficult because we thought we would get first place, which would enable us to have the materials and things we would have to do our best job. But, we didn't get first place on presenting our robot. So we had a very harsh time fitting costs into our budget.
