Re: 18 balls in goal.

Student on team #69, HYPER, from Quincy Public Schools and Gillette. In Reply to: 18 balls in goal. Posted by nick237 on 1/20/2001 6:25 PM EST: : Its possible to get 18 balls in a goal. If you put three balls in the goal and had an arm to push the high ball horizontal and next to the first 2 then you get three balls in a triangle flat on the base. : The next three go the same way, Its possible to get sets of three 6 high, and a big one on top? : try it by hand. : nick237 Of course you can, but can your robot do it? It could be done...depending on the torque exerted on that ball (force exerted divided by the torque arm). Would it be enough? If its not that much, then yes, it can and most likely will be done (500 teams...lots of designs :-) ). Is it worth the extra time? I don't know. There will be three other robots helping out, but what happens if none of the others can pick up balls (gotta love Team HYPER's luck), and you are the only one that can? All the other robots were designed to do were to get to the end zone quickly, and maybe balance a goal (assuming that your team inherits Team HYPER's luck). I think that doing that would be worth it, you get 18 points times all those mulipliers and other additional points. Good Luck. |
