Re: new from IFI
The outside ring is made of stacked sheet metal rings. You may want to try that.

Re: new from IFI
Does anyone want to see [somewhat] destructive testing of the new IFI wheels?

The 2006 game will obviously have some sort of countdown. And there's also going to be some kind of ambiguity to the game. I suspect some sort of non-rigid, possibly fluid scoring object. |

Re: new from IFI
I really liked the idea of the game with the balancing ramp(was it diabolical dynamics?). It was a task a little more intensive than just hanging: you actually had to balance the thing. Sensors did not need to be employed, but they made the game easier. A physics challenge that was challenging! Now if we can only get a three team ramp...

It was fairly interesting from a competitor's standpoint, just to see who could set the highest score. It was pure hell to watch as a spectator without prior knowledge of the game. And the elims were for the most part already decided as soon as the match pairings were released. robot-robot interaction is WAY more exciting. |

Back to the wheels...
Not a bad price for what you get. Nice work IFI. We may see these wheels on a lot of bots in 2006. |

I am looking forward to a drivetrain intensive year. It seemed as though this year, because of the field, there were the teams, then the teams with the holonomic drives. They were cool, but it wasn't real diverse. Last edited by Andrew Blair : 10-12-2005 at 13:41. |
