Wow... lots of things here. Let me comment after picking my jaw off the floor.

First of all, I think that is the most awesome, coolest turret ever in FIRST. How did you make the ring gears? Are they wire EDM'ed? Did you have to be precise in how the ring gear segments were lined up?

Secondly... nice holonomic drive. This may be the first worm gear 4 wheel Killough platform in FIRST.

You have this innovative drive base with a drop dead gorgeous turret. These two innovations together takes alot of guts to pull off. This is surely inspirational stuff. Way to go Metalheads!

(edit... initially, I thought this was 85's robot...)
