TEAM NOX
ENGINEER. BUILD. INNOVATE.
PLAN. MANAGE. EXECUTE.
The Mechanical division is where Nox's ideas come to life. Students build, assemble, and test the mechanisms that allow our robots to compete on the field. Members develop skills in fabrication, assembly, and mechanical design while learning how different parts work together as one robot. Through hands-on experience, students also learn to troubleshoot mechanical issues, improve existing mechanisms, and build reliable systems designed for competition.
The Design division is where ideas come to life at Nox. Members within this department utilize Computer Aided Design programs such as Onshape and Fusion 360 to implement ideas and concepts where mechanisms and assemblies are created and tested prior to being built. Students consider factors like material, weight, size constraints, and more to create high-performing designs.
The Electrical division is responsible for powering and connecting the systems that bring our robots to life. Students learn proper wiring practices for motors, sensors, controllers, and power systems while understanding how electrical components connect and communicate. Members also develop skills in troubleshooting, organization, and maintaining reliable electrical systems throughout the season.
The Software division develops the code that controls our robot. Students work with odometry, telemetry, sensor integration, PID control, and more to create responsive and reliable systems. Members develop skills in debugging, data analysis, and control theory while collaborating with other technical divisions to improve robot performance and ensure systems work smoothly together.
The Finance division manages the financial systems that keep Team Nox operating. Students work with budgeting, purchasing, grants, fundraising, and sponsorships while learning how to organize resources and make informed financial decisions. Members help ensure that the team has the funding and materials needed to build, compete, and continue growing.
The Outreach division connects Team Nox with the communities around us. Students organize STEM events, demonstrations, partnerships, mentorship opportunities, and other initiatives that introduce others to robotics and engineering. Members develop communication and leadership skills while expanding the team's impact beyond competition.
The Marketing division develops and maintains the Team Nox brand. Students work with photography, social media, graphics, video, communications, and visual storytelling to showcase the team's work. Members learn how to present Team Nox professionally while creating media that connects with students, sponsors, and the wider community.
The Strategy division analyzes information to help Team Nox make informed decisions during competition. Students work with scouting data, match analysis, game objectives, and alliance information to identify strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities. Members develop analytical and communication skills while helping shape the team's approach on the field.
