📄️ Gantt Charts
Another one of the key Items which should be present in a notebook is a Gantt Chart. A Gantt Chart shows to judges, and others who read your notebook, that is a project that is not just thrown together it a few days (RI3D excluded). It allows you as a team to demonstrate proper project planning, allows you to delegate responsibilities early in the year, and gives those who are unfamiliar a general timeline for the year. This is directly from an the resource shown above, but does a great job better defining and describing the role of a Gantt Charts project development.
📄️ Bill of Materials
When you're working on any sort of engineering project, you will always have some sort of restriction/constraints. Blank checks don't exist for anybody - and that will be the same for robotics. A Bill of Materials helps to keep you in-line with that restriction by keeping track of the cost, amount of components in your system, and what materials they are made of to create a copy of your Robot.
📄️ Notebook Layout
A notebook does not need to be updated everyday.
