Re: What team did this?

I saw it at Buckeye last year. That drive brought on a bunch of double-takes.

I'm not sure what the purpose of it is, but it was pretty slow moving. I can see how they could dominate pushing matches if they put traction materal on those bars connecting the wheel.

Re: What team did this?

Wasn't it noisy as all get-out? All I know is that I was very impressed with their bot and how it worked...I can't recall how the linkages worked between the disks to allow a full 360* rotation, but as soon as I figure it out *again* I'm going to make a working model of it .

Re: What team did this?

It is very noisy and not very efficient and it hops at fast speeds making it unstable...it works by angling the two plates and as is rotates it sets down a "Foot" then that foot slides sideways and another foot is set down...and also the weight it takes to make it out of diamond plate is too much and is typically hogged out making it structurally Shaky.

Re: What team did this?

Here is another picture of their 2005 robot, and a beautiful picture of our robot during one of our practice matches.

It was pretty interesting and took a little thought to wrap your mind around it. . It looks pretty cool when it drives, also.
