Re: 2015 2nd Choice Robot
The programming department suggested Mecanum Wheels as our robot is heavily dependent on being aligned with the tote chute. Of course, being the programming department, our idea was quickly discarded by design with the reason "that's too hard to build". The driver now has to struggle to back out and drive in repeatedly in order to get in the right position.
The idea of being able to stack a bin was also suggested. It too was shut down because they wanted to use the door latches instead of building our own latches, so our stacker is too narrow to accommodate for a bin.
