Re: How Would You Change Your Robot

1. Be able to effectively score the low goal. We could push the ball in when it was on the ground, but once the ball was in our bot it was difficult to expel it by means other than the shooter.
2. Faster, more robust pretension adjuster with greater range. I think our bot could probably human to human truss if we could crank the spring pretension up some more.
3. 2 ball hot auton. We have a pretty consistent one ball hot auton, and our bot can do a 2 ball in theory, but we haven't had time to implement it.
4. Be able to shoot the high goal from the low goal. Since we have on the fly pretension adjustment, and can adjust our release angle between matches we can probably do this if we find the right settings. This would have been useful for matches where we were playing finisher instead of trusser.
5. Goalie bar. We didn't think this would be worth it initially, but once teams started using webcam control for goalie bots in auton it was obvious that it could have been a great addition to our bot, and we probably had the weight for it.
