FRC 3320, Miracles & Machines:
The team got started on two robot projects right when we got back from the Lone Star Regional. In three weeks, the team built a Soda Dispensing Robot and a T-Shirt Cannon Robot, both will be on display at FIRST World Championships at the National Instruments Booth. Unfortunately the physical team won't be there but please stop by the booth to check it out.
The Soda Dispensing Robot - Self-Explanatory, it's a line following robot that brings soda to a cubicle near you...
T-Shirt Cannon Robot - Again, self-explanatory, ours can launch the first t-shirt as far as 60 yards, then shoots a second and third t-shirt of exponentially shorter length. (That way it's not all three t-shirts bombarding one person)
Pictures and video documentation to come.
