That's So SA
Robotics
Ellipse 6814 calls its members to be creative, gracious professionals committed to working passionately toward a common goal. Guided by adult mentors, student leaders and community partners, we prepare ourselves to be leaders in a dynamic and challenging world.
Ellipse 6814 was started in 2017 by student Bryce Hanson '20 and STEM Teacher Ramsey Musallam. We started with just one student, and now have a sizable team with over 40 members. Our team name, Ellipse, is meant to represent timelessness. An ellipse is the shape that is created by the moon orbiting around the earth, and we wanted our logo to represent this by encapsulating that shape along with the display of our name and team number. Our current team is the very first robotics team to be represented at Sonoma Academy, and we want to be able to continue this team for years to come.
We welcome all individuals with different robotic backgrounds, from students who live and breathe robotics to beginner students who simply want to learn more about the world of robotics. We have team members from all grade levels, and have divided the group into multiple subdivisions in order to to increase productivity. These subdivisions include: Fabrication, Actuation, Programming, Electronics, Treasury, and Communications.
