Re: pic: Team 1124- 2009 Robot

hmm... apparently in this photo the extra fencing on the top wasnt trimmed down. looks like a prototype of some sort. They didnt send you a final pic, ellen?

Here are some statistics (from what i remember)
- Helical Hopper capable of holding ~15 balls, with active rising system to prevent jams and keep the ball constantly ready to shoot
- Turret capable of rotating 360*, limited by software to 270* (or else it would shoot the not-present-in-photo-camera)
- Shooter has an accurate range of about 8 feet, can shoot at max 12, fires about 5-7 balls per second fully revved up
- Software controls for target tracking and motion prediction, and traction control

The robot's unofficial name is "Master Chief", mainly because of the shape of the camera guard, but dont tell anyone that.
