I thought some of you who may not know this would enjoy and appreciate this thread about the Chariot and how 118 has had an impact.

Anyone know that song name?

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
 
"New Born" by Muse I believe. Great song to go with it I would say.

Awesome cienematography! Wow that robot must keep the operator AND the driver busy with so many DOF!

I can't tell exaclty, what are you using for energy storage? Elastic cords of some kind it looks like?

Cool!

The building you are thinking of is at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Robonauts are in Houston.


This is on sick robot. Very little defense is allowed to be played this year, so I can see 118 going through LSR unscathed and unstoppable. (No offense to my other friends in texas). This will be a very good year for the crab drive, I was actually thinking the other day about how experienced 118 is at their drivetrain.

i cant wait to se this thing in action. i had a similar design idea at the begining of the year, but my team just thought i was crazy! looks like you guys pulled it off perfectly, reaching the high DPS niche you always do! expect me to come by and ask you guys all sortsa questions at LSR (i'll be the one in the purple)

Great thing about FIRST:
If you can't beat 'em - join 'em!

"FeederBots" anyone? Herding and wrangling Trackballs well will look good on your "resume" during alliance selections.

So would the ability to deprive such a bot of their "food" via effective opponent trackball herding....

We've been thinking about how our shooter robot will be defended....it's an interesting mind game....

Heh, i know that feeling. I had a bajillion drawings of elastic launchers and springs.. My team thought it would be too stressful on the metal frame of our bot... HMPH!!! :cool:
