Introducing the first preview of Team 1002's (CircuitRunners') robot:

The shooter is not mounted yet, but we're working on it. The drive train consists of 4 6-inch meccanum wheels (I preferred 6wd, but you can't have everything T_T). We used 6061 1/4" thick Aluminum Alloy plates for the drive panels, 1010 T-slot framing system for the physical frame, the conveyor system is being assembled off screen, and the shooter is powered by two FP motors in a CIM-sim gearbox.

Hopefully we can get everything assembled friday and spend Saturday and Sunday at the Scrimmage hosted by Kimberly Clark.

Can't wait to see this guy rolling!

Hopefully it will. (though I never got to see that robot perform). We sort of modeled the shooter after the 2006 robot, though the conveyor system is much different: Polycord with pulleys instead of pvc rollers. Also I think this robot will be a tad bit shorter than the 2006 one. If it works, i want to call it AI, because the robot performs vector calculus and it will be short but shoot well (Allen Iverson anyone?)

Still saying D-Rose, Griffin, or Wade. I would say Jordan, but Simbotics has acquired the name already........
