Re: 2959 Robotarians 2016 Render

We went back and forth over the low bar, but decided that trying to fit everything we wanted that small would have limited how we wanted to do it.

Figured that a lot of bots are going to be able to do the low bar, but most of them will sacrifice something else to do it. We should be able to do everything but the low bar. We put a lot into not being a pushover this year. Besides going over pretty much any obstacle we don't want to be push around. The robot has 2 speeds, one for speed and one for lower speed but some pushing power.

Our shooter also works better by being up a bit higher, increases our accuracy. The higher we shoot from the easier it is to line up. We should be able to shoot pretty much from anywhere in the courtyard.... assuming the programming group gets our vision tracking working like we hope.
