Re: Poll: Wide or Narrow Chassis?

I think we will assuredly see a triple robot balance. what about robots driving onto other robots, I could see a robot designed entirely to hold another robot, and to allow it to climb on with a ramp working very well. If the first robot had a 14 inch wide ball manipulator up front, with a 14 inch extension there is even enough room for a second robot on top while still having a working ball scoring system. A low level of stall against some support on the first robot would enable it to stay on fairly well, and score 2 robots in the footprint (slightly more really) of one.
