Scary Bots

Hey people! If you have seen a scary bot or own a scary bot, please post a picture or a video of it here to let other people know! ANY SIGHTING IS IMPORTANT, SO THIS IS A MUST!

Here is one Scary Robot that I saw:

So cool, and yet so terrifying!


To be serious, I want to see some very scary bots, so thanks if you post a picture or video of one.
PLEASE GIVE CREDIT TO THE TEAM WHO FIRST TOOK THE PHOTO!!! PLEASE!!!

Note: By scary I mean so awesome that it is scary, not the kind that gives one nightmares.

Credit for photo goes to Team 3937. Photo first posted by Breakaway3937.

I did not mean scary as in bad. Just frightening

However, getting hit by the ball would probably literally kill you

Re: Scary Bots

Do you want to see something really scary?

Team 195, The CyberKnights, will be competing this weekend at the Southington District event.

Check out how it's targeting lights illuminate before the shot. Notice how it spins the ball in its grasp as it carries it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Sg4...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
Great driving to elude defense.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fngz...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
This was the only match that they lost all weekend, until the QuarterFinals.
An aberration that should be corrected this weekend.

A unique design that can shoot on the fly. A necessity to make shots in a game that defense is changing.

Scary: playing against 107 for three consecutive matches. There was no stopping them at Escanaba.

Re: Scary Bots

230's "hammer bot" is a tad intimidating, to say the least. Their 2 ball autonomous is phenomenal. Props to them for winning the Groton District Event. I'm curious to see how they preform at the Southington District Event this coming weekend.

Thanks for the props on our 2-ball auto. We have gotten it to a good solid place. Very proud of the programming students.

Don't be intimidated by the teeny, tiny sledge hammer. It's got a Hello Kitty sticker on it so it's perfectly safe.

Of course, your shooter is much more intimidating especially when seen up close where you can hear it cocking for a shot.

What? Our robot? Nah Howie is pretty cuddly!
Disclamer: Howie is short for Howitzer.
Disclamer 2: Howie shoots with almost 300 pounds of force, and has a 100T sprocket, so it is not very cuddly.

This is how you know when someone is in FRC, when they talk about cuddling with a 120 lbs robot that can fling a ball with 300 lbs of force!
