Best Body shape? - Chief Delphi

I find this ironic. In English class our teacher's tell us how there is symbolism and such, and we don't understand it or think its there. Then FIRSTer's get a Game Hit, and we think EVERYTHING is a symbol and has some significance. - akoscielski3 [more]

Honestly, I would either have to go with triangular or circular, because then it deflects the force of any oncoming robots better.

If you're aiming to build a robot that pushes other robots, however, rectangular would be better (possibly with a wedge) so you can direct your force over a very large area.

While form typically follows function, in the case of robots, form can determine function.
