MakeShift 4039 Robot Reveal 2015 - ROY G BIV
Team 4039, MakeShift Robotics, is proud to present our 2015 Recycle Rush robot, ROY G BIV - a three-part, tethered, tote-centric stacker!

ROY:
  • mobile platform housing the battery and electronics
  • transports stacks from human loading station to scoring platform
  • forks out front have passive hinged plates for lifting bins and up to six-high tote stacks
  • potentiometer allows touch-of-a-button pre-programmed vertical positions
  • co-op capable
G:
  • manages the critical transition of the first tote from the CHUTE DOOR to stacking
BIV:
  • ROY without wheels (which makes for common spare parts)
  • allows the human player to constantly load totes, even when ROY is not present
See you at Waterloo and Finger Lakes!
