Team 254's T-Shirt Cannon
 




Team 254 prouldy presents Shockwave, our t-shirt shooting robot. The robot was built from August to October 2010. Team 254 plans to use Shockwave to promote the team, our school, our sponsors and our community.

Shockwave features a ten-barrel revolver with gatling action, automatic barrel indexing and motorized adjustable pitch. The robot drives at 12+ feet per second and can shoot projectiles over 150 yards.

Visit our team website for additional information, technical specifications, photos and videos. Be sure to check out the videos page to see the robot shoot 3+ shoots per second.

Very sweet. And kudos for not making the barrel out of PVC ::safety::

That, good sir is awesome.
How do you fit T-Shirts into those tiny holes (no, that is not what she said)

Our teams t-shirt launcher is PVC (triple re-inforced), with one huge barrel of about 3 inches radius. Even tightly wrapped, T-Shirst still have to be stuffed in! I really would like to know how you made that beast-machine!

I expect my jaw will close sometime in the next half hour or so. The puddle of drool I'm making is a bit disconcerting.
When you start selling these, let me know.
