Re: Pan/Tilt Assembly
The TechnoKats t-shirt cannon was mounted on the team's Rack & Roll practice drivebase for a while. Tilt control was a simple chain and sprocket on the arm's "shoulder" joint. There was no need for a pan mechanism, as the robot itself can turn to face whatever direction is desired.
If we hadn't donated the 2008 Overdrive robot drivebase to our sponsor for target practice, it would have made a fantastic t-shirt cannon platform. Maybe we can mount the remaining superstructure to a simple mecanum drivebase and drive it around that way.
