Re: 3310 Robot Reveal

You've invented the robot that can play any game --frisbees, basketballs, etc, with just a change of manipulator.

You still have to outscore the other alliance after getting those center containers. Scoring 301* points every match is still going to be hard, even with 7 recycling containers.


*I leave the version where you reduce their score further as an exercise to the reader

Re: 3310 Robot Reveal

Another amazing robot from 3310! While everyone on 148 is impressed with your can grabbing, we're very disappointed that this year's robot isn't just 4 crossbows and a giant winch.

See you guys next week. #TeamTexas

We did contemplate a grappling hook system with 4 crossbows but then we decided on something that sounds scarier when executed. Plus we wanted to do something we haven't done yet. KARATE CHOP

Getting 3 full stacks with cans and litter, and a perfect auto is only 158. This would be for the team that loses the cans. 5 full stacks with cans and litter is 210, assuming no auto points. for the teams that win cans. The only points the alliance with 3 cans can get is from litter across the field and individual totes. Assuming 7 pieces of litter (28 pts) across the field, they would now have to score another 12 totes just to even catch up with 5 stacks with cans and litter. That might not look like alot, but every piece of litter missed, or put into the landfill zone increases that tote number by 2. It could get out of control real fast, especially because at the high level, I expect the captain and #1 pick to both be able to do at least 3 full stacks with cans. 6 stacks with cans and litter is basically insurmountable, because it would require 21 totes to be scored to make up for that stack.

Sounds like a lot of stuff you have to do after the first 0.25 seconds to win the match, to me.

An alliance can still score 300 points without any step cans.

Technically yes, if they can score 57 totes in addition to their 3 stacks. You'd have to be pretty creative, because thats 10 stacks. That makes 13 stacks total, and if an alliance can get 13 full stacks to actually fit on the scoring platform I would be very impressed.

And yes its not auto win, but neither were minibots. You still had to put tubes up to win. Its just that you didnt have to do a perfect rack, unlike what the other team would have had to do.

Only 52 "additional" totes (assuming one recycling container per stack).

Re: 3310 Robot Reveal

Dallas is going to be really unfair to the good teams. It's unlikely that all these amazing teams will be on the winning alliance.
On the other hand, that's pretty much every year, isn't it?

Re: 3310 Robot Reveal

But, being assured (anyone being able to pull that off consistantly within 1/4of a second), that you have at least an even amount of RC's, assures an even chance at max points for your alliance. EQUALS VERY IMPORTANT.

Great job there Team # 3310. A great robot.

Not if the other alliance gets more of the totes from the step than you do, or is more efficient with their litter scores.
