108 - SigmaC@T
:: Really Good (NOW) at: 2x / Hang / Defense / Strategy ::
-We can [cap, uncap] the [stationary, mobile] goal.
-We can hang in around 30 seconds after driver pracice on thursday.
-We've defended against some of the top seeds and do that very well. We're moving away from that strategy as our scoring abilities have risen, but we can still do it.
-We do extreme analysis of all teams at competition, along with review digital videos of the matches. Its been noted by our previous alliances as a strong point of 108.
During the midwest regional we:
-Upgraded drive train from belt to chains. No more drive train problems
-Perfected the hanger after lunch on saturday of midwest. Can now hang every match.
-Doubled the pressure of the 2x gripper by adding an extra piston. Now will have excellent 2x ball control.
Drive:
4 Motor (2 CIM 2 Drill), 4 Wheel, 2 speed drive
Arm:
1 Globe motor Joint
1 Pneumatic gripper
1 Globe motor Rack and pinion mechanism for lifting the robot off the ground
1 Servo ratchet to lock the robot from falling (Debugged at Midwest, problem was backup battery wasnt charged)
Auton:
Our Goal Side: Prepare to grab the big ball on
Opponent Goal Side: Smash Big Ball down and shove goal into ball shoot.
I have no good pictures. It upsets me greatly.
