Stretchy and Fetchy-1657 robot reveal

[dodar]

So does the robot drive over to its final spot in auto?

Are you confident that you can start with your robot in that position? My concern is that you are in the autozone at the beginning of the match.

Thats what I was thinking.

All joking aside, this is a very cool concept. Very curious to see how it plays out.

How did you get the hook for the recycle bin on to the bin at the start of autonomous?


Very nice robot!!

The auto zone is between the Scoring Platforms, so unless their robot goes past the Scoring Platform it is legal.

No worries, entirely legal

The field drawings has the divider on the alliance station side of the scoring platform. So it would look that if they were straddling the scoring platform, theyd be in the auto zone as well.

Figure 2-8 clearly shows the Auto Zone is in between the Scoring Platforms.

Yup, the picture of a field I saw had the field tape on the wrong side. You are correct.

I hope we continue to see vastly unique designs like this throughout the coming weeks. Einstein might end up looking like a giant Rube Goldberg machine.

How are you preventing the hooks from resting on/applying downward force on the bin?

3/4 "game changers" posted already. Very excited to see this executed so well.
