 Unsure if I'll get it to work, but that's no reason to not try. - DonRotolo [more] |

Re: Old Robots?
We keep our rookie robot intact due to our mentors' sentiments.
The 2002, 2003, and 2004 robots were all dismantled this year by eager recruits to learn a little about how they worked (or didn't) Last years robot is in full working condition, during the off season we added closed loop positioning of the forklift. This years robot will not be dismantled either, because it was our most successful robot to date (we were seeded in the top 10 at WI). We are planning to demo the robots for the incoming freshman classes to build interest in our program. One idea we had was to have the 2005 bot dunk poof balls at basketball games and the other to shoot baskets (it works surprisingly well) to show off for the sports crowds and convince them to buy lots of raffle tickets... We are also planning to add the video camera to this years bot because we didn't get to it during the season.
