Re: Robot Cart Questions from a rookie team
I had an idea at one of our brainstorming sessions the other day that we might find an old hospital gurney(sp?) to use as our cart. I mean, the robot weight limit this year is 120, and theres no way the robot, even with battery and acessories, will weigh 300 lbs, right? Since I'm sure hospitals need to roll heavy people around on those things at some point, they ought to be rated for the weight
