WOW!

[MrForbes]

Aside from the "wow!" of the robot(s), it's neat how the colors in the picture perfectly match the colors of the forum. What a coincidence!

Not really a coincidence :D CD runs the forum, so it uses their colors (orange, black). They use their team colors for their robots, too.

One of those robots says 'OCCRA' on it (the local off-season robotics league)

This year's robot is UNDER the two you see. The two you see are the ones from OCCRA and 2006, respectively.

Incidently - MARVOLOUS ramps. I like the two stage deployment. That plastic looks IMPOSSIBLE to cut through ;).

I'm curous about your ramps.. how do you fold the wings out after you drop the platform? How much does the ramp setup weigh?

They are unlatched by a servo, sprung out, and then rotated by the 2 globe motors, one on each side. They are close to 16.5 lbs for each assembly motor and all included.:)

The manipulator is really interesting , can you post more pictures ?

[Matt Reiland]

Very Nice, a little early for 47 to be showing their stuff???

None the less, as usual, I am impressed, and I suspect it will get better as the season progresses......

[Freddy Schurr]

How do the ramps come out? What an awesome robot.

The manipulator is a bucket split in half with a rack and pinion that opens and closes it. It is a pretty unique unit and hey it works really well.;)

Yeah it is very unique, and difficult to put together, but it was well worth it...;)

oh i didnt see the small one underneath. i just saw the tow big ones and they looked like they could do the task, therefore i assumed that those were competition bots for this year. it is very nice.
