Re: Beatty's 2004 Robot

Whatever they build, I know it will be a quality robot and a challenge to find a way to beat And so the anticipation for this Thursday builds...

Re: Beatty's 2004 Robot

In auton mode it will float to the 18 balls and suck them all up into a small basket that temporarily stores them in an alternate universe. Then it floats to the center platform grabs the 2x ball with a powerful suction device (not unlinke 267 Demolition Squad) then quickly sits in front of the chute waiting to feed the balls back to their human player (who will be an android with a 100% shooting accuracy). After Auton mode the robot feeds all of the balls to the android. Then caps the soon filled goal. And floats to the platform where it will sit on top of the bar. From the bar it can move side to side and efficiantly defend it. It's capper apendage will be telloscopic and easily be able to decap the opposition's stationary goal. It will also have a tractor beem to pull it's alliance partner onto the bar in the last 10.5 seconds of the game.
..

OR, they'll try and control the game like they have in past years (but with in reason). I foresee a very good hanging/capping system. And possibly a good autonomous mode.

Re: Beatty's 2004 Robot

There is a .zip file with all the yearbook pictures, including team 71's, on FIRST's website. It's not a big picture, but at least it's something.

http://www2.usfirst.org/2004comp/Events/

And here's a direct link to their picture.

So, what do you guys think?

i think thats a sweet practice field

as for the robot, i cant tell much. I dont think it can catch balls, but it looks like it may potentially do everything else.

I wish we had the time, resources, space, and funding to build a practice field like that....our autonomous could be unstoppable with a full-scale field.

Seeing how low it is sitting on the platform, I would imagine it gets up there much like WildStang does this year. They may have a small ball collector, but it's hard to tell

Don't mean to sound stupid, but since you obviously know, how does Wildstang get onto the platform? I've seen a picture of the robot but that's all.

Wildstang raises their wheels using pneumatic cylinders.

I think that you should have team #71's permission first. If they wanted to post a pic of their bot, they would have.

Re: Beatty's 2004 Robot

Its really not that bad a move, all he did was go onto FIRST's website and look at the yearbook .zip file which is open to everyone.

It may be technically open to everyone, but I don't think FIRST has intended it to be for everyone's personal use. If they wanted everyone to browse that publicly, they would have made index pages for those directories and posted them on the main site.

Oh well, too late now. I think we'll get over it.
