Image Discuss: 401 Amazing lifter...
 

Heh...nice photoshopping skills.... :)
Our device is capable of lifting around 150 lbs

Care to explain your mechanism or post a picture or two?

Is this 150 real pounds or 150 theoritical pounds?

*the kid only weighs 90 pounds, so what makes you thing it's photoshop?

He looks like he would have to be in a very uncomfortable position to have his body like that in a bin. If your bot is on than you have a very stupid member of your team in the red shirt not wearing his saftey glasses. Should be common sense and common practice to have glasses on whenever a robot is on around you, especially that close.

I once fit one of my friends into his backpack Freshmen year. Then there's Mike on my team's plane flight home from the 2001 Championship Event. I'm convinced that people can fit anywhere, in any orientation ;).

Mike is 6'3" if not taller.

That guy is wearing safety glasses. And youd be surprised, it isnt common practice to wear safety glasses to many people.

Hey...didn't your bins come with a "Don't put people in here" sticker on them like ours did?

If you plce the jpeg into photoshop and zoom in, you can see the apparent pixel line at the top of the bin and around his face. Good use of photoshop though.

Sorry, I wrote my post wrong, they guy in the greenish shirt is the one I was pointing my finger at. With the glasses on top of his head. Also, I said it should be common practice to wear them, not that it is

wow... you actually took the time to do that?

woops- wrong quote

I meant this one

Here's the thing guys...I'm a photoshop man, spent the last 2 years revolving around it.

Bottom line: this is photoshoped. The kid was never in the bin.

Well, neither of these statements are true...

1) It was done using "gimp" or something like that (not my doing)

2) The kid really did fit in the bin like that. We took one picture of him in the bin, then one with the lifter up.

The kid's small, and he really did fit in the bin like that...

As a matter of fact I am the one in the bin in that photo. I used gimp to edit myself in. I did actually fit in the bin, but i was on the left side on the real picture and i moved it to the right of the bin when i gimped it. I only wheigh 102 lbs :p

Re: Picture
 

That explains why you don't look like u were never in the bin.

What is gimp? I've never heard of it.
