Isn't this kind of what CD-Media is for?

somewhat. except this will be easy to navigate- you won't have to search and hope you find what you're looking for. all in one central place.
I hope a lot of team participate! well done brother!

It seems like a solid idea.

Perhaps after it catches a bit of steam, add search criteria by team number, game name-year (which you already have I suppose), and maybe even search by various robot components.

This is AWESOME!!!

[Ankit S.]

Is this real life?

[Cyberphil]

Epic, to say the very least! I can't wait till this gets a few more teams!

[jblay]

Great idea. I can't wait till this takes off and more teams add their designs.

This already existed in firstrobotics.net. unfortunately that site has since disappeared.

FIRST Robotics Canada also has some great galleries of robots, mechanisms, arms, grippers, etc.

[M. Mellott]

Is this in conjunction with JVN's challenge to post robot designs publicly on CD, or is this something you've been working on for a while now? What is the background behind the creation of this site?

I think it's a great idea--look forward to seeing this take off!

[Jim Zondag]

Love it! Great Idea.
I have complete models of several of our previous designs I will review and submit.

[Dripto]

Great idea! Just a quick thing, you listed 148's '09 bot as Armadillo.

Anyway, this could be a super useful resource, lets all hope it takes off!

[Jared Russell]

I will have our CAD team submit the drawings for our '08-'11 bots. Great idea!

How about adding a space for teams to write a bit about their design, design process, cool features, lessons learned, etc.? These bots are gorgeous from a distance, but even more impressive engineering marvels when you can get the inside scoop and peek "under the hood".

I love this! It has been a long time in coming in my opinion.
Way to take the first step, I hope everyone will use this.
