Canburglar Battle Videos

[hannaners]

Since champs is looming ahead in just under two weeks, I figured it would be a good idea to gather some videos of canburglar battles that have happened over the last 7 weeks of competition. A few threads discuss good canburglars and qualitative observations, but I hope this can serve as a collection of videos of the robots in action. I'll start off with some of our (MOE 365's) battles

2015 MAR Upper Darby Quarterfinals (link goes to thread) - 365 against 225, 225 secured both cans (ref made us move back and we didn't have time to readjust)

2015 MAR Championships Quarterfinals - 365 & 1089 against 1218, our alliance secured all 7 cans

Here is our tug-of-war with team 126 Gaelforce at the New England District Championship. I have to say I was impressed that our robot corrected its course so well with its gyro after the battle. I'm told that 126 didn't suffer any damage from their fall.

I compiled all of the can battles that we saw in playoffs of NECMP into a YouTube playlist. It appeared that many battles were not just won with speed, they were won in part by how the cans were repositioned as they were grabbed. For convenience, I added the videos that you posted and I will continue to do so for everyone and anyone that posts links on this thread, as well as posting any other videos of bin battles I see.

Here's a tasty one from FiM. 548 vs 503

The video isn't as good but http://www.dptv.org/programs/first-robotics/

at 6:13:00 of finals, away from the camera is 1711 vs 27. They both go for the can and stall. 1711 wins in teleop because 27 retracts.

This is the video of 359 vs 610 from the Hawaii Regional.

Here is a pretty nasty one from semifinal 6, the majority of it occurs during teleop surprisingly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI2a...YuS9q&index=10

Btw, the Ligerbots (2877) YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgN...7d58dVR-80DCGA has videos for the New England Championship that are far better than the official feed. We have all the playoff matches (except semi-finals 1 & 2 - my video crew lost interest when we didn't advance, but then I told them to turn the camera back on). We also, by and large, only filmed our own qualifying matches and those of team 1519 (since we borrowed their power).

I'm not done uploading the remainder of the semi-final matches, but they should all be there by tomorrow.

We had 2 battles throughout the season, both in the Finals of our Regionals.

Here is 3683 vs. 2056 at the Waterloo Regional: http://watchfirstnow.com/archives/122871175

I don't have the 3683 vs. 1114 battles from the Windsor Essex Great Lakes Regional, but I will update once I can.

Not a battle but in qualification match 189 from MSC we got to line up side by side with 548 and get all 4 cans. I can only find this video but if anyone has any others please let me know!

Speaking of MSC heres a (terrible) video of 469's only 4-can-auto test (3539 tries to beat them but fails)

Another MoE/Mercury battle here. This one went 2-1 to the MoE/Mercury side.

I can't remember another can-battle that ended up with each robot grabbing a single can, though.

I would say this is the most "battle"-like can war to date: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RRx52dH7Qk
Just to keep a record, it was between 4486 and 399.
It is the Final 1 match from the San Diego Regional; the situation from which arose the red card controversy, and later, Frank's blog.

I don't think I've seen to date a can battle quite like this, with simultaneous grabs, and quite a struggle. Unfortunately, I fear we may be seeing quite a bit of this at champs, or at least in elims and on Einstein. With everyone trying to get those cans, I would bet many teams are adding can grabbers, or at least making theirs faster.

Finals 1 of SVR had a real tug of war between 971 and 5027 that ended with 5027's cheesecaked grabber breaking.

Stay away from the cans!!

A little humor before the competition. Old enough only your gray haired mentors will remember this.
