WRO RoboMission debut

I learnt Fusion 360 from scratch to design a novel, carousel-based, 3D-printed robot. At its core, a rotating carousel sorts the mosaic grid blocks. A Raspberry Pi 5 handles vision and talks over serial to a LEGO SPIKE Prime hub, which drives the SPIKE Prime motors. Our team placed second nationally in South Africa, and we've qualified for the international final in Puerto Rico.
