This year's strategy
 
This year's strategy will be quite simple.

Using the custom circuit board to read the gyro into a PIC controller will then send directions for motor operation to the control system. This will allow for the building of a large 4 foot tall mechanical rat to ride around on top of a large model of Ginger/It/etc. The mechanical rat will then have a large swimming pool skimmer with which to grab the balls.
This year's strategy is simple, amusing, and completes the task.
We look forward to building it within 6 weeks.

P.s.- maybe we should make it fly too.

How about a robot that flies and makes pizza (an actual suggestion by a member of my team last year)?

We could build a walker similar to the AT-ST from Star Wars. Actually, with the gyro, it could be possible.

Why not the AT-AT?
It's got more firepower, this year is a fighting game afterall!

Too slow, and an AT-AT would be too easy to build.

but the rat!
 
Yes, yes, we could build an AT-ST or AT-AT or even IT, but we're missing the vital point!

To build a large, mechanical rat!

With a Pool Skimmer!

No offense, but
 
I think you guys need some serious sleep. You're starting to get a bit too "chatty." :)

JVN 10-01-2002 16:43

Seriously, lay off the No-Doze and Mountain Dew for a while and take a nap.

You are getting very sleepy.... ZZZZZZZZ :o

EddieMcD 10-01-2002 17:05

but dew has brominated vegetable oil to minimize the effects of carbonation [which is the opposite of what you're going for with poprocks...]

you're haroc0r when you've memorized the ingredients to mtn dew...
