JuiceBox
A community engineering project to help the local houseless population.
There are pods for the houseless community of Portland to stay in, but they are completely off the grid; lacking power and light. So we created JuiceBox.
Description
We apply our FIRST skills to engineer for our community, make an impact by running multiple offseason events, and make FIRST loud!
There are communities of pods that the houseless community of Portland stay in. Although they provide shelter and a place to stay, they are completely off the grid. They lack power and light. JuiceBox alleviates both of those problems. JuiceBox uses a solar panel and then stores energy in an old FRC battery to power a light and power outlet. JuiceBox is one of our community engineering projects, and it won the Lexus Eco Challenge 2017 prize.
