Team 254 Presents: Barrage

[Navid Shafa]

15 seconds into the video you can see the mega pneumatic. It has a baby pneumatic attached for the latch. The back wall for shooting is latched and stationary, except for when they want to open it?

Holy Catch Batman...

*My only question: Is there hot detection for path selection, or is it 3 hot/3 not?*

Fancy editing software. Pat must be pretty good at it.

Oh my.

gotcha, them touching the others balls seemed more possible after rewatching the video. Awesome job as usual!

I love the catcher and rear intake. Sweet looking robot as always.

[Michael Hill]

I really hope it's built strong enough...

Knowing you guys, it probably is, but be careful. There's a real danger in your intake system using a pneumatic cylinder like that. If your intake system takes a lateral hit, say "bye-bye" to the cylinder shaft. Fortunately, you've got another on the other side.

Anyone have a mirror? Won't load for me.

[MetalJacket]

Incredible ... as always

EDIT - Quick question for you. What material is that on the rollers? I've seen teams use it before and it seems pretty effective but I've never bothered to find out what it is.

Again, a perfect example of simplicity being genious!

I hate it when we over think things!

For ROBOTS starting in the white ZONE, the TEAM may preload one (1) of their ALLIANCE’s BALLS such that the BALL is touching their ROBOT.

For ROBOTS starting in their GOALIE ZONE the TEAM may decide if the BALL is: staged between the TRUSS and the ZONE LINE and not contacting an ALLIANCE partner, or removed from the FIELD for the MATCH.

If a ROBOT does not report to a MATCH, its ALLIANCE may decide if the BALL is: staged between the TRUSS and the ZONE LINE and not contacting an ALLIANCE partner, or removed from the FIELD for the MATCH.


Doesn't necessarily have to be touching.


Awesome robot from Team 254

[Gregor]

Just noticed the catcher...

[dag0620]

My Jaw Dropped. Wow, that was amazing.

[Mark Sheridan]

Awesome robot. I love how the intakes can hold the ball on the bumper. This robot built for rough gameplay: no way that ball is gonna get knocked out, high shot release and able to shoot with intakes retracted.

[Boe]

Wow.

Fantastic robot as always. I'm sure a lot of qualification matches against this bot will be over in that first 10 seconds. Might even be the year that we see someone beat the 2056/1114 combo.
