Go to Post One wondered why they couldn't practice in the gym that day - because the robotics team had it reserved was the answer. "Oh, we have a robotics team?" Sigh. This is a team with a low number. They've been around for at least a dozen years. There's still a lot more culture-changing to do. - GaryVoshol [more]

Scary Bots

Hey people! If you have seen a scary bot or own a scary bot, please post a picture or a video of it here to let other people know! ANY SIGHTING IS IMPORTANT, SO THIS IS A MUST!

Here is one Scary Robot that I saw:

So cool, and yet so terrifying!


To be serious, I want to see some very scary bots, so thanks if you post a picture or video of one.
PLEASE GIVE CREDIT TO THE TEAM WHO FIRST TOOK THE PHOTO!!! PLEASE!!!

Note: By scary I mean so awesome that it is scary, not the kind that gives one nightmares.

Credit for photo goes to Team 3937. Photo first posted by Breakaway3937.

Re: Scary Bots

Our bot doesn't look scary until it drives. While it may appear 'tippy', the CG of our bot is just a few inches above the bumpers.

Our 6 wheel drive (6" diameter by 2" wide wheels with blue nitrile inclined belting) combined with our 2 3CIM ball shifters with ratios of 1:7 and 1:18.75 give us so much torque our robot can pop wheelies

I did not mean scary as in bad. Just frightening

However, getting hit by the ball would probably literally kill you

Re: Scary Bots

Do you want to see something really scary?

Team 195, The CyberKnights, will be competing this weekend at the Southington District event.

Check out how it's targeting lights illuminate before the shot. Notice how it spins the ball in its grasp as it carries it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Sg4...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
Great driving to elude defense.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fngz...tH3hUljz8wc_Vw
This was the only match that they lost all weekend, until the QuarterFinals.
An aberration that should be corrected this weekend.

A unique design that can shoot on the fly. A necessity to make shots in a game that defense is changing.

Massively powerful, and thus, scary. Nice find!
