Re: Video: FIRST Team 2481 30 Point Climb Teaser

Excellent. I'm really looking forward to "robot-reveal" season this year because of the challenges the game presents. Seeing teams post their solutions to the challenge of climbing (human-assisted prototype or not) is really awesome, and congratulations! The speed at which you climbed is also pretty great! Best of luck this season, I can only imagine things will get even more exciting!

Re: Video: FIRST Team 2481 30 Point Climb Teaser

Are those .125" steel hooks? What'd you have designed for the "spring" as they pass over the bar, or is it just deformation of the metal itself? If the sound in the background and my ear is correct, it sounds like you're running this on a pneumatic system - what sized bore and stroke are you using? If I took a guess, based off the math we did, you're using somewhere between a 25-30" stroke, 1.25 - 1.5" bore cylinder to climb. Are the stages human controlled or is the climb largely autonomous?
All in all, great video!

PS - I like the mini pyramid in the background. Good testing ground?

This is awesome. We have a mini pvc pyramid as well.

Glad to see someone is going up the corner.

Congratulations on achieving this incredible feat. You just made me all the more fearful of the competition at the Wisconsin Regional this year.

I like how the title on your team website says: "Raising The Bar And Climbing Higher"

Awesome video.

As another 1732's Strategy Team's mentor said, "this does not surprise me at all." We are expecting another top notch robot from 2481. Hopefully, you guys make the Championship this year.

I'm looking forward to seeing it at Wisconsin!

I'm curious as to the solution to traversing the corner gussets.

Re: Video: FIRST Team 2481 30 Point Climb Teaser

Wow! This is the first climbing video that I've been impressed with. I really like the spring loaded hooks. Are you using pneumatics or something like a really fast lead screw?

In any case, really cool.

Re: Video: FIRST Team 2481 30 Point Climb Teaser

Ours is very similar, at least I think so. I'll try and have a vid up later this week. We just got our key parts today (after weeks of backorder)


Good luck, can't wait for the reveal to confirm my suspicions.

I've also got my suspicions as to how this works. Let's just say I've seen some similar ideas over the course of the season Can't wait to see it in WI.

Its almost scary how choose this system is to ours so if the rest is close, I haves pretty good idea about it...think Dean Kamen. (at least, for our solution he applies)

Are you focusing on only climbing, or can you score disks as well?
