FRC Driver Station
My FRC team has aspired to build a driver station for years! It is due time that I step up and finish the project :) I will CAD out the driver station and physically assemble it in person in my team's workshop. What is a driver station? At competitions, teams regularly have to transport their robot and operating devices from the pits (where they keep their robots) to the field (where they play matches). A driver station is meant to hold all the operating devices such as a laptop, controllers, cables, extra tools, and whatnot in a securely fitted fashion. BOM: I added the .csv to Github, and optimized the prices from Amazon by finding a new coupler, as you can see in my latest journal (titled "Optimized BOM") Aliexpress alternatives ended up making the total cost more expensive. *Note that I have Amazon Prime.

Rishi's Hackpad
My hackpad I'm making to learn the basics of KiCAD and PCB Creation. The basis of this PCB is to be simplistic and calming. The firmware I have attached to the Github is supposed to switch tabs and workspaces on my laptop, making it easier to manage my ongoing tasks and be more productive! It is a custom macropad (one of the projects defined to be tier 4). Thanks to the help of the Hack Club reviewers I was able to find a better PCB vendor to bring the cost down to ~$16!
