IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
What do IFI interns do in their spare time?
This summer (among other things), they build a robot 100% VEX Robotics Competition legal to play Rebound Rumble. http://blog.iamjvn.com/2012/08/vex-i...nd-rumble.html Yeah, we were pretty impressed with them too. :) Big congratulations to IFI 2012 interns Josh Wade, Chuck Glick, Aren Hill, James Tonthat, Charles Wensel, & Alex Zettler on surviving our first "summer of innovation." |

If you could fit a standard FRC battery and control system on there, I think it would have been the coolest robot this year. Mind those bumper rules though!

Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
psh...it ain't cool unless Tonthat can fit inside.
|
Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
Now that is impressive. Nice work.

Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
Awesome! So that is the "forest", now we need the "trees". Did they follow a typical JVN/148 design strategy? Design log? CAD?
You've got to push these interns John. |

This may have provided inspiration for our homecoming parade float. Thanks for sharing.

Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
Cool. Would be neat to see a FRC/VEX hybrid competition (offseason maybe?) Where robots that would meet VEX robot rules play an FRC game. (Vice versa wouldn't work quite as well, methinks.)
Would be a neat miniaturization challenge. |

Looks great. I wonder if Aren tried to convince the rest of the interns to make it a swerve too. lol

Swerves aren't a problem, If anything to help you recover faster. John should give you tumbleweed ;) I recall your rookies saying that swerve drive this year was super neat and they would LOVE to build another one! Cough *2013* Cough. -RC *Build hella swerves. |
Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
Don't listen Aren! Your treatment is going so well! Remember all of the people who care about your health! :p

Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
Swerves aren't an addiction, they are merely a lifestyle choice.. =p

Re: IFI Interns Play Rebound Rumble
Hi. Our team watched this video last year and we want to use a similar design because our team does not want to spend money on pneumatics. Could anyone explain how the throwing mechanism works.
