Re: Australian 4613 Robot Reveal 2016!!

The feature-set on this robot looks eerily familiar. It is good to know there is hope in this design, and we weren't crazy to jam-pack it all in.

Overall it looks really cool, like an event-dominating robot TBH. I wonder if the zig-zag bumpers will help or hurt with open-field pins. The ability to shoot 90-ish degrees to the right will help a TON if the lighting conditions change at a venue, requiring time to re-tune vision processing.

I am curious about the intake - it looks as if the pneumatic cylinders are able to stop mid-stroke to drop a ball off to the shooter?
