Please visit our site, or click on the link below, and download a video of Team 188, 'Blizzard', in action. This video gives a quick overview of our robot's abilities and speed.
As a quick recap, our robot has an innovative design that allows it to score ALL 4 big balls by squishing two of them between the two goals. We then, ideally with the help of a ramp manipulating robot, balance the two goals on the ramp. This provides the 4x multiplier as well as places all four big balls in scoring position giving each team an additional 1.1x multiplier.
Additionally, we can right ourselves when tipped, sweep small balls from under the ramp, tow goals without grabbing onto the horizontal bar, and raise/lower the bridge.
Enjoy!
