2007 Galileo Robot Information and Pictures

[AdamHeard]

Team 294.

Drive-train:
6 Wheel Drive (Skid ["Tank"] Steering)
2 2.5" [Small] CIM motors
2 3" [Big] CIM motors
2 Fischer Price motors
Single speed Custom (3 MOTOR!!!) Gearbox
6" Custom Aluminum w/ rough-top tread
~10 fps
2.5" ground clearance (bottom of bumper zone). Without bumpers it can drive over a 4x4. (see notched frame here)
Great for defense (Just ask 330, 696, 968....)


Arm: (pic1 pic2 pic3)
Legendary team 60 Arm.
Each Joint Driven by a small CIM with an AM planetary.
Can score on all 3 levels.
Can score 8 undefended. Hasn't happened in a match, that was on a practice field. 5 in a match has been done though (while wasting the last 20 seconds or so)

Gripper:
Grabs tubes from outside, strong grip and allows for a lot of missallignment

Autonomous:
Dead-reckoning/Prep for pickup

Strengths:
Drivetrain can climb any ramp out there.
Can Score Quickly.
Rarely Drops tubes.
Great Defense.
Can put our open grabber over a spoiled spider leg to keep it from being despoiled (sounds weird, but this may prove useful)

We are looking to be a versatile 3rd pick. We can round out any alliance, we can play great defense if that is what is needed, or can pitch in on offense/protetcting a main scorer.
