Re: Playing Jenga with construction equipment

This video was shown at the NASA Robotics Mining Competition this past week. There are a number of others as well. Pretty cool stuff.

Although stacking games have been done in the past in FRC... Look for threads titled "Worst FRC Games of all time" or something along those lines and you'll probably find the names of these stacking games.

2009 didn't include stacking.

Re: Playing Jenga with construction equipment

Some of my co-workers actually made this video. They said it was a lot of fun but very very difficult. These guys operate machines for a living and are some of the best in the world and they though it was hard. This seems like a fun game but i do not see this going over well with FRC.

Re: Playing Jenga with construction equipment

As part of team CAT, I'm proud this has caught some people's attention, but it would make for a pretty horrible FRC experience. Jenga (or anything in this vein) would require a lot of precision in the control aspect. That's not just driver experience or capability, that's the mechanical design precision as well as the mechanical/electrical control. Those are difficult problems to solve and are compounded significantly with the precision requirements that a design challenge like this would create.
