Re: Crazy robot idea for this year 2

Fun ideas...however, they're fraught with peril.

For the first one, if it falls over while on the bridge, doesn't that risk unbalancing it due to the centre of gravity shifting? Check out the 5 second rule, [G37].

For the second, among many other potential issues, you will need to deal with having the battery, the cRIO and other heavy things onboard to be considered a robot. Also, how will you avoid unsafe operation?
