The ChapR
The ChapR is a patented remote for controlling FTC, FLL, and FRC robots without a PC.
It allows teams to easily set up drive practices and run autonomous programs without
bothering the programmer(s) or fighting over the few PCs available.
Created in 2013, it has been sold to hundreds of teams all over the world,
using the profits to fund free ChapRs for teams in need.

What I Did
I was just a team member on the ChapR.
It was first created by members of the FRC team at Westlake High School
when I was in 8th grade, when attending St. Stephen's Episcopal School.
I joined the team as a freshman and became part of the test and
manufacturing team.
It was a great way to learn about project management, soldering, and
working within a team. I was originally one of the "beta testers"
for the ChapR, when using it for my FTC team.
In fact, we made a couple of videos about using the ChapR. The following
link shows Trevor and I showing how to "pair" the ChapR;
And, unfortunately, I was too late to the party to get on the patent!
