title: The Robot - A.L.I.C.E html_title: The Robot | SR2015 slug: robotics/2015/robot
Our entry for 2015, named 'A.L.I.C.E', was a massive improvement over last years model, in both design, and the code for it. Before ALICE was built, the design team built us a very basic chassis usind scrap parts from 2014, which allowed us to write a large amount of the code base before we even had the robot built. Originally I wanted the final chassis to be built before the end of January, so we had a lot of time to test out the design for the robot and test using the final, in reality, it was closer to the middle of march before this was a reality.
