Re: Silly and ridiculous robot designs.

I seem to remember an idea kicking around during a brainstorming session with team 190 back in 2k3. Something named "wall genie", that could lift all the boxes off of the ramp at once, still stacked, while having no wheels and not moving the entire match. Numbers were crunched over a couple days until it was finally revealed that the amount of force that would have been applied to the field elements would lift the entire field off the ground.

Maybe you had to be there.
