Team 7 Prototype

Team 7 Rocket League Prototype

For our first prototype for a Rocket League controller, we chose to start off with a cardstock paper model of the Fast and Furious Nissan Skyline GTR. This seemed like a reasonable course of action since it has a shape with a lot of bends that cardboard or other harder materials wouldn't be able to capture. The wheels and wing of the prototype have been left out, as these pieces need to be custom-made for the switches, sensors, and sliders we plan to use for the controller. These details are important, as they influence how the game plays with our controller. As we work on our next prototype, we are developing a customized paper model pattern to fully integrate all the technology. This will be made from a new type of cardstock that we hope will not weaken with the application of glue. However, as we are still in the design phase, we are actively seeking your recommendations on the aesthetics or materials.
