Re: stationary robot
 

There is now one example of a robot with two stationary components. I am pretty certain that there will be more.

Re: stationary robot
 

Our team is mostly made up of newer students so we decided to go with as simple a robot as possible. Our robot sets up on the scoring platform and has a gravity roller conveyor which feeds a stationary stacker from the feeder station. The totes roll down the ramp to a simple lift and when the stack is complete, a piston pushes the whole stack over enough for the next tote stack to slide in. In theory, we can stack all 30 totes from off the field if stacking one tote every 4.5 sec in 8 stacks from where we line up on the platform.

Our team designed a bot that moves in Autonomous, but otherwise stays at the feeder station the whole match without moving. We do have a Mecanum drive system, for the ability to line up our ramp to the Human Player Station.

Re: stationary robot
 

Our bot effectively got 10 totes on the field consistently, in any combination of stacks, from the feeder station without moving, creating a platform for our allies to place containers and more totes. We won the Excellence In Engineering award for our bot at the Palmetto Regional, and plan on attending the Virginia Regional in Richmond.
