Re: What do you want your robot to do?

I don't know what you guys are talking about? There is only one thing that you can do that is worth doing this year and that is stacking tetras. Unlike last year where there were a half dozen things you could do.

Re: What do you want your robot to do?

Last year team 662 had a robot that pretty much did one thing and one thing only, hang. We had the coolest arm design too, the was mostly powered by a winch. It worked incredibly well, we managed to hang for those 50 points almost every single time. The few times it didn't was because either the cable broke or the cable got tangled up, then it was a mad dash to herd balls. We could also decap enemy multipliers while we were hanging, so that was pretty cool.

This year though, the scoring possibilities are quite a bit more limited, but the ability to play certain strategies is more exotic this time around. We're still in the design phase for our robot. So we'll have to just wait and see what comes about.

Thumbs up Re: What do you want your robot to do?

Our robot will probably be really good at 2 things. Pushing enemies away from our rows and have good stacking capability.
