Re: pic: Double lift!!
It's a winch system that drives a scissor lift. Each side is independently driven, so they don't have to lift both at once. I think they diverted power from their drive motors to do it, but I'm not sure, that's what it seemed like when we practiced lifting with them (the omni-wheel on the opposite side of the bot tended to spin in place while they lifted us on one side of them).
Definitely a cool lift, had a few jamming problems, but still pretty awesome to watch.
