Go to Post Innovating for the sake of innovating, reinventing the wheel is probably the second biggest pitfall you can fall into when designing an FRC robot, if the wheel is already a very optimized, good solution. - Chris is me [more]

Re: Are FIRST robots actually robots?

Whoops.... Mike all ready pointed out the definition. Anyway, they are definately robots.
Quote:
i believe yes. why? it is a mahine designed to complete a task without direct physical contact from an outside source ie a human. so based on this an rc car is a robot lacking in manipulator.
No. The definition is lacking. Teleoperated robots are capable of making decisions and doing actions independent of the operator.
