Re: Punch a robot

I cant find the video on it, but in 2008 team 20 had a sub frame o our robot that was essentially a boxing glove that punched the ball on the overpass. (My Idea, never thought it would ACTUALLY come to fruition) We didnt use it much, mainly as a second robot for a exhibition tournament we hosted and a couple qualifying matches in the Finger lakes Regional. Its all but forgotten on our team, as our four bar ball lifter was (and I agree with this) a much better option of the two. Still, fun to say that we had a punching robot
