I'm here mostly to lurk and occasionally post stuff from my ENGR 100-600 class at the University of Michigan. And maybe some funny memes that come out of the ENGR 101 class.
And thatβs a wrap on the ROV Showcase for the Winter 2025 semester!! THANK YOU amazing teaching team and THANK YOU MHL!!!
05.04.2025 22:15 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Woohoo! Both Iceberg Solutions and Michigan Turnips competed their riser inspection task on the first run! A great way to end the ROV Showcase!

05.04.2025 19:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Sorry for the poor framing here lol. I'm on a scooter with a broken foot and trying to stay out of the teams' way!! π
05.04.2025 19:51 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Triton heading back from their riser inspection. Did they get all their sector damaged identified correctly??

05.04.2025 19:43 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0All right! Bubble Trubble and Onion both in with successful riser inspections!
05.04.2025 19:02 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Bubble Trubble returning from their inspection. Time to check their data sheet to see if they correctly identified the damage on their assigned sectors!

05.04.2025 18:41 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0oof. Both Aqua Spy and Liquid Legends unfortunately ran out of time to complete their inspection. This shows how hard this task is! And teams only have about 6 weeks to design, build, and test their ROV system!
05.04.2025 18:08 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0And Aqua Spy heading out to inspect their risers! We can have two different teams testing simultaneously. As long as we don't have Payload #8 and Payload #5 in the water at the same time?? They are apparently having an electronics feud right now lol.
05.04.2025 17:38 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Liquid Legends heading out to inspect the risers!
05.04.2025 17:36 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0TA Molly leading Aqua Spy onto the Midtank Platform to deploy their ROV! Looks like they're using one of our "emergency backup" controllers. We have several styles of backup controllers for teams to use, because you just never know what might happen!
05.04.2025 17:34 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Liquid Legends getting ready to deploy their ROV at the North End station! It's tricky getting in and out of the towing tank facility. Students are taught how to move slowly and pass over equipment.
05.04.2025 17:32 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0After teams complete their riser inspection, the teaching assistants conduct a cost audit to verify teamsβ cost breakdown for the cost rankings for the teams. Apparently the TAs are trying to get some rent money out of this π jk!!!
05.04.2025 17:13 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Deep Blue Gars with a successful riser inspection! J3S LakeGate almost got there, but just ran out of time! (Don't worry, grades are all about presentations and reports, not if you can get to all the sectors in time!)
05.04.2025 17:04 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Oops! J3S LakeGate lost connection to a thruster. But they're limping back to base for repairs! Good job adapting, team!
05.04.2025 16:58 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Here's J3S LakeGate out at the risers looking for damage!
