Go to Post If you are playing foozball and your ball bounces back out of the goal, do you expect the table's manufacturer to fix it? No - you groan and keep playing! Nothing's different here. Like Dave said, it's part of the challenge of playing the game. - petek [more]

We have a lot to learn before we can make a swerve that well.

Found this by digging on youtube last night. View #2!

Fantastic robot! I think it's awesome looking (though I've become a bit biased towards red and black powder coating). I'm very excited to play with you guys in OC!

Re: Team Mean Machine 2471: 2015 robot reveal

Thanks for the kind words!

I figured I would give a list of features, considering that our video doesn't showcase all of them.

1. Fast internal tote stacker.
2. Smooth and maneuverable swerve drive train.
3. Active roller intake for landfill clearing.
4. Container "gripper" can acquire upright and fallen RCs.
5. Front latch holds in stacked totes automatically.
6. Can place RCs on existing stacks up to 6 high.
7. Compact swerve modules weigh less than 7lbs each.
8. Stacks can be ejected onto a scoring platform, the step, or a tote on top of the step.
9. Very low center of gravity. (Can tip past 45°in any direction without falling)

(254th post lol)

Re: Team Mean Machine 2471: 2015 robot reveal

Brilliant design but then I'm biased. It's actually quite weird that our teams a mere 45 minutes apart independently came up with robots so similar. Of course we can't match your awesome, refined swerve drive.

You guys are anodized this year? That's even better. Tough and light. Did you get a sponsor for that? I can't wait to see it.
