Engineering Notebook App:
We have partnered with MSOE Professor Dr. Hasker and a group of 3 MSOE students to create a new engineering notebook app. We have been working on this new app since fall and are currently in the testing phase. We hope to release the app for FTC teams to use this spring.
This application is designed to give teams a simple way to produce beautiful engineering notebooks a without having to master all the tools that doing something completely custom entails. The app allows team to print and generate amazing looking output, customized to your team’s look and your team’s process.
The output application allows you to have custom ‘tabs’ for each robot area and custom process steps. Each member of your team can author and include as many others in the contribution to the log as needed. Photos can be easily placed from Google Drive or your computer. You can track tasks accomplished, tasks remaining, enter the log using several helpful content types that let you control how the output looks and wrap it all up with reflection. The web-based app allows team members to collaborate on multiple devices for the best end product.
Documentation:
Of course you’ll want to customize the application for your team’s needs and color scheme. You can customize the following:
- Process Steps
- Robot Categories
- Team Members
- Theme – Colors, logo, etc.
We’re looking forward to release this application soon.
