Re: What is your teams (general) robot design? (2015)

* C-shaped drive base w/ 4 wheel tank drive powered by 4 CIMs
* Internal stacker w/ 2-stage scissor lift powered by Dart Actuator
* Fold-out clamping acquirer with wheels set up for intake and expulsion
* Linear guides for stack stability

This is all under construction now... We have some ideas to add later, time permitting.... Our prototyping leads us to believe we'll be able to stack a recycling bin on top of five totes internally and set them on a scoring platform in under 30 seconds... We'll see what it actually does in a week or so.
