Archimedes Scouting Info

[MichalSkiba]

Team Number: 854
Team Name: Martingrove Institute of Robotics (M.I.R.)

Pros:
We can stack 5+ high, knock down stacks, swinging punmatic arms that can effectivly get stacks/boxes out of corners and knock down other stacks even with robots in the way, good gear ratios for a good balance of speed and torque, experianced, comitent, and rational drivers (4 years experiance), wheel chair drive can get us out of corners, we fit under the 14 3/4 inch bar, wheels have VERY good grip on carpet and HDPE

Cons:
Questionable electronics (the connections that is), aluminum arms as oppose to steel, autonomous mode needs work, but then again we have a 30+ hour bus ride to houston from toronto so someone will end up doing a good job out of boredom.

Awards:
Delphi's Driving Tomorrow's Technology Award winner at the Canadian regional.
Esthetically pleasing "Warwagon" Awards from teams 48 and 378 at the Canadian regional.
