For those who haven't seen team 40's robot, the basic design is essentially Pink 2k7 with swerve drive. This allows them to pick up from both sides of their robot. They score the first tube as normal, and then back up diagonally, while lowering their arm to pick up from behind. They then pick up the tube directly in line with their partner's stationary robot, tilt the arm back to forward, and score it. Its a very efficient system.

Yes. This was correct. I believe they used their camera to detect the yellow of the Ubertube and strafed over to pick it up. It was amazing to see it in the finals. The gym at WPI erupted when it happened. By far one of the coolest things I have ever seen in Autonomous.

2 Ubertubes Eh? I think I can shoot for 2 also. I mean if half a dozen teams have done it, why can't I? Only problem I might face is the claw not actually being able to grab the tube from the ground.

Looks good but remember there is going to be a robot sitting behind that tube.

Tube would be sitting next to an alliance robot and touching their bumper (hence the big chunk of fiberglass on the floor to represent the other robot). Have refs not been allowing an initial set up like this?

That's perfectly legal and very similar to the setup I have seen 33, 148 and 1114 use.

Sorry 842 but I dont think that was scored within the 15 seconds, but close =]

Success! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiWpnlnvF5I

Could still use a few minor adjustments, but we're going to have to tune it on the competition robot on Thursday anyway.

See everyone at the AZ regional this week!

Only if it doesn't move before they get there which is quite plausible since a lot of teams don't have an autonomus.

I wish we could do this... Does anyone have a robot shaped like a feeder station??? if so we need to talk

I do not remember them successfully doing it. I know they attempted many times, but had issues accidentally gripping on the other robot.

51 and 469 are also attempting it, but once again I'm not entirely sure if either one of those teams actually have scored two.

I heard Tom Nadar say they completed it.. Ive seen 51 and 469 attempt through your videos... Maybe they did it in pratice matches?
