Re: Robot in 3 days /72 hours

I also saw very few clones of the 2013 Ri3D robot design, unless you consider every wall pickup shooter / 10 point hanger a "clone." That was a successful strategy with or without Ri3D. Floor pick up and climbing above the 10 point level was a bit tricky. I'm hoping Ri3D / Build Blitz improve the level and depth of competition in 2014. It's still too difficult to fill a 24 robot pick list at most regionals. David |

With all the different types of strategies you could approach the game with (cycler, vacuum, FCS, climb, etc.) I'd argue 2013 was the most diverse year. Just look at 2012, as recent as it gets, every robot had a similar turret-style shooter and a rolling ground pickup. Many of the bots this year had a linear shooter. They also had a passive hanger. I think several of those teams could've figured that out by themselves anyway, most teams used a linear or occasional U-shaped shooter, and then hung for the easy 10 points. I think this will definitely help inspire and raise the floor of FRC. |

Re: Robot in 3 days /72 hours
Team O-RYON is happy to join the Robot in 3 Days effort! We have been planning this for only a week but we are ready!
We are very excited to try to inspire the robotics world and can't wait to start prototyping and building our robot in 3 days! Follow us on twitter #TeamORYON and our live stream on "robot in 3 days" website and/or justin.tv (search for roll24productions) Follow us on Facebook (search Rice Robotics Club) Check out our intro on robot in 3 days website as well! |

The vagaries of a teams experience: build space, sponsorship, mentors, school year, fresh crop of students, field trips, board of education meetings, fundraising, community service, regular life.......... I am grateful to RI3D. You will provide valuable shortcuts to help my students build a more capable machine while still learning about engineering and project management. 4, maybe 5 robots? Thank you so much. You are an awesome resource. Keep getting better. |
