Today, both robotics teams gave a presentation to a panel of community engineers selected by the coach. The presentations were about the teams' status, plan, and mission. Personally, I think it's a bit early in the season for this type of meeting, though corporate-style state-of-the-project meetings do have value. Nevertheless, each team discussed the parts of the robot that were together and touched on team workings, introducing each member.
A tiny amount of actual work was done after the presentations, and I learned that the veteran team has started programming with Android Studio. Both teams still have a long way to go; neither robot moves, neither has any useful appendages, and only one has wheels.
I'm not actually sure whether the engineers from the community are potential mentors or sponsors, but they're apparently important - there were cheesecake bites at the meeting.
