Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

Can we further divide these lists between those listed as 'dumpers' as those as 'defenders'? Dumping and defense, while useful in tandem, need not go hand in hand.

I wouldn't take much merit in the scientific usefullness of these type of "surveys" because mostly people vote on robots and teams they have seen and sometimes they vote on teams just because they like them.

I agree that there really isn't much "scientific usefulness" in these, but I'm just doing it for fun. It also would be fun to see a robot in ATL that I remember from these surveys, and see that they really are a good robot.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

I would just like to put Team 422 out there. We nearly won Palmetto, qualified second there, and lost in the semifinals to the overall winners. Our bot was amazing there, and we won the Delphi Driving Tomorrow's Technology award for our defensive emergency "parking" pneumatic brakes, seen under the curved lexan. We were awesome at defense and still scored 20-30 points per game in the side goals.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

The survey would have some merit, if the dumpers are listed, we'll see in Atlanta.
From the web-cast, I identify # 581 as a dumper, winning at the Silicon Valley regional and # 1272 at the Boilermaker. Both were never mentioned.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

At Davis, we saw some pretty good "bottom-feeders" (namely, dumpers) including 955. 753 had a sipectacular defense, but it was a shame that we couldn't play against them at their full capacity in the final-final match. But any way it goes, I'm glad to see that they won their way to Atlanta, so I'll be glad to see them play once again. Oh yeah, and how could I forget 1006 from Canada? They played well, displayed lots of team spirit, and really made the Phoenix Regoinal a fun place to be.

Also, check out this video of our autonomous in action (center position, blue alliance). I just thought I'd throw our team out there for people to judge.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

I would have to say Zeus, (cant think of the name or number atm), it was a great bot that helped us and defended us all the way until the last match of the day in the championship match3. I wish Zeus would have gone with us unfortunately their robot had some problems with a drive chain if i remember correctly.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

It seems like this has turned into the shameless plug thread, so I might as well put our name out there.

Team 195 has what it takes to win matches, against anyone. With the ability to pick balls off the floor while driving 11 ft per second and human load, gathering a load of 30 balls is no sweat. The robot can scoot from one side of the field to the other in 5 seconds flat, and shoot every ball it has into the corner goal in another 5 seconds.

This robot has a very effective autonomous mode. It uses 3 PID systems to control heading, speed/distance traveled, and its location relative to the wall. The robot takes off at full speed toward the side goal, and slows down to a smooth stop, dropping 10 every time. Closed loop control ensures the robot is in the right place to drop the balls, even when teams come from behind or the side to knock the bot off course. Team 195 did not lose an auto mode at the UTC regional. Not one.

The Knight's drive train is powered by a 4 motor, 2 speed shift on the fly transmission with nominal speeds of 11 ft/s in high and 4.7 ft/s in low. The power is directly transmitted to a pair of Brecoflex endless belts. The system has been tuned to perfection and is capable of pushing just about anyone out there. Team 195 was the only team able to stop Team 20 in qualification rounds at the UTC regional, ending their 25esque winning streak.



Team 195 is in Newton, home of some of the most powerful shooting robots in the world. Many amazing alliances will be formed with these shooters. Team 195, the Cyber Knights, would love to complete any of these alliances as the third partner, and bring some high quality New England Defense to the table.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

I'm posting this for all the "non well known" teams this year that are good and haven't been recognized. If you are reading this and your robot isn't mentioned here's what you do. If you are attending Nationals go out there on your field and show them who you are. Make yourselves known. Strive to make yourselves one of the best so next year people can be like "I remember you guys from last year" You guys were good. I know what it's like. This year out of our teams 7 year history this is one of our best robots ever. We use 4 CIM Motors and a 2-speed Transmission that is customely built by us and we have treads. In High speed we are about 13.5 ft/sec and low gear about 4 ft/sec. We are really strong in Defense. In Philly we pushed around 2 robots at the same time and when needed to collect balls we shift by pneumatic shifter into high gear and zoom around the field to collect and dump them. In Detroit we got Auto mode 10 balls 9-10 times attempted. In Philly we were considered in the top category of low ball herders and dumpers forum. I think the reason that we weren't mentioned in this forum is because we aren't a well known team like CHUCK and CIA, we are just the robocats from a small town Girard Ohio who is more known for our "Fund-raising ethics and community service" and "Red Shiny Pom-Poms" then by our "robot". That's why I said to the teams that weren't mentioned here to go to the Championship and give all the teams a memory of your team because it gives people something to talk about.

1549 for sure. Undefeated in GLR seed matches and we never shot a ball!

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

My top five dumpers
1.322
2.1504
3.963
4.123
5.1747

My Top defenders
1.872
2.503
3.322
4.1272
5.451
6.1781

I think the best dumper far and away is 322. The F.I.R.E Team built a robot that FLYS around the field at the speed of sound and dumps extremely well. 1747 is an excellent dumper. How they weren't picked at Boilermaker boggles my mind. Geo-Motion is a great robot as well. Gina Sweet and the rest of the gang at 1504 really designed an excellent bot. It ground loads as well as Wildstang, and that is saying something. Team 963 and Team 123 were both at Buckeye. They were members of the number one aliance. They both were able to score very well and both loaded well

My top defenders is an interesting list. Team 872 is the only purely defensive robot that i have seen be a picker. That thing is the best defensive machine that was built all year. It moved very well and pushed well. Team 1272 had what may be the greatest defensive play this year (Look at my post for Best Matches). 503 and 451 were excellent defenders and also were able to shoot. 1781 was a strong defender at Wisconsin. They were able to push team 1625 around in the finals. You notice team 322 in the defenders list. They are an excellent defensive robot as well.

Re: Defensive/dumper hall of fame

Dumper- By far, Chuck 84 can dump like mad crazy cows jumping over the moon. 30 pts like that

Defensive: I don't want to toot my own horn, by I feel Team 204 has a shot. We can push two robots at the same time and block whoever is shooting. Majority of our matches came down to us to play defense. Also, we can play anyone who shoots on the ramp.

Thanks for the compliments on 322..........we learned everything we know about defense from your 2004 robot blocking hangers on the platform.....you were unstoppable and proved at least one great defensive bot is needed in an alliance to win the big show. Especially this year.
