Above is FRC Team 1319's submission for the 2005 year. This was our second year as a team. We built a simpe 6WD chassis that had two arms for picking up Tetras front or back. The end manipulator was a simple shape made from PVC and PVC fittings tha evolved into different ones until we found what worked best. The arms did not telescope to go higher however because we had two arms we could cap quickly or deliver to a partner that wanted to cap as well. We also had a PVC roller painted with bright pink stripes that rolled on the ground and gave a clear indicator that we were legal to be taking a tetra from the human player. Although it is not our most successfull robot by award status it performed the challenge well and so far is the simplest we have built.
