That arm is sweet

Re: pic: RoboRaider-2007
 

I checked this arm out personally at the NJ regional and it is insane. 3 Joints on the arm (shoulder, elbow and wrist) as well as a turret on the bottom of it. This robot was very effective at human player loading (I think they finished 4th). Very elegant design J&J.

i agree that they have a nice robot

just that i know their weakness :D

Woah, is that hillsborough Oregon? If so...my brother was born there...

Re: pic: RoboRaider-2007
 

For clarification, Team 75 is from Hillsborough, NJ.

Re: pic: RoboRaider-2007
 

looks cool:D

it looks to me that there is another joint on the bottom (not a turret).

what motors did you use for all those joints?

Re: pic: RoboRaider-2007
 

You guys have an amazing robot. Team 75 was an amazing alliance partner in finals. I remember after the first qf match was done for us, I was amazed at how many ringers they put up. I expect great things from this team during the season. Good luck at the Chesapeake regional guys!

haha, thanks for all the comments, for anyone going to Chesapeake or Atlanta, feel free to stop by the pits for a better look

“What motors did you use for all those joints?”

The turret uses the smaller window motor. The lower and second joint are both linked by cable and are powered using the large CIM motor through a worm gear so it cannot be back driven. The top arm segment and wrist both use globe motors.

Yup, 75 has a great group of hard working students, with a brilliant design.
Good luck at Chesapeake!

If your weakness involves getting something stuck in there arm, forget about it. You would need a steel rod to do any kind of damage. Of course, to mount a rod big enough you would not have any weight for a drive so you would sit there, worthlessly. That arm looks unstoppable. Great job.
