Been waiting for this one. As you kids say out there, "hella cool."

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

Awesome! I can't wait for SVR! That shooter and hood combination looks familiar.... ;)

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

Looks like we drew inspiration from the same source during design.

Bot looks awesome.

Kiet,
seems weird that you are not part of the red/black team anymore!

Great fabrication work as usual.

As I first glanced at the robot, it looked mighty familiar.............some 2006 machine that I recall from 254/968.:rolleyes:

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

Best looking robot I've seen yet. I love the obvious nod to the 254/968 shooter of 2006. Hella fly!

Huh? Dejavu?

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

Beautifully built.

Any plans for using the camera, or do you have something else up your sleeve for targeting?

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

Are you worried about ever having more than 3 in that hopper?

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

We're able to score accurately using a few reference points on the field. We are also planning on using a camera(wasn't mounted when the photo was taken).

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

the robot looks amazing :) but i was wondering the same thing... how do you keep balls from gettinng into the hopper?

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

This robot looks like it is made from Lego Mindstorms, in the good way.

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

What's the purpose of the pneumatic piston on the rear of the elevator? My first guess is hood adjustment, but with the rivets running down the hood I'm not entirely sure.

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

It looks like the hood does adjust, It might be for a short range high arcing mode (like 968 in '06).

Re: Team 1538 - 2012 Robot
 

Looking very nice 1538 and loving the design concepts this was the first robot I looked back to once the game was announced!

Good luck this season!
