Re: Let's Talk About The Bridge:
What about this scenario:
Eliminations, you have two robots on your alliance bridge and one robot on the coopertition bridge (and thus prevent your opponent from scoring on the coopertition birdge): You get 20 points for the 2 robots on the alliance bridge and 10 points for the robot on the coopertition bridge, meanwhile preventing your opponent from scoring 10 points because you prevent them from using the coopertition bridge. Unless your opponent could get 3 robots on their bridge, this scenario would come out the same as if you got 3 robots on a bridge and they got one robot on the coopertition bridge in terms of point differential. I think the bridge will prove to be pivotal because not only do I think the points are weighted more balanced than in past years (...minibots), but also because FIRST reserves the right to change the point values come Championships. |

The Coopertition bridge scores no match points.

So in other words, go big or go home.

Re: Let's Talk About The Bridge:
If you made a wide base robot you could have a larger intake and more easily fit 3 bots on a ramp.

Re: Let's Talk About The Bridge:
I think getting 3 bots on will work well if the last bot to get on has a bridge lowering device.

[G37] Final scores will be assessed 5 seconds after the Arena timer hits zero.
So, whatever you do to balance, make sure it stays in position after you lose power. |

Re: Let's Talk About The Bridge:
I guess this thread would be good to talk about how teams plan on moving the bridge from the static position down to court level so the robot can get on the bridge.
Are you going to stick a wedge on top of your robot to push it down on the other side for an alliance member? Are you going to build something that knocks it down on your side? Are you going to put legs on the robot so it can jump, or something else? |

Some kind of deployable traction device would be desirable if these are used, of course. |
