Engineering Portfolio

This is the only document that the judges really look at. You have 15 pages to describe your team, and what you have accomplished throughout the season. Document all your outreach, hardware, software, and team structure.

Deja Vu Team Journal

This is no longer a requirement, however, having some method of documentation that the team can refer is something you should consider. Previously we used google docs, but this year we will be using google sheets just to keep track of our progress.
