Go to Post Engineers are not eligible to join NEMO, but that's OK! For us, there is an ad-hoc disorganization, notionally dubbed EMO. Meetings have no agenda and are called at random, usually in the evenings following long days at FIRST events. - Richard Wallace [more]

Re: Silly and ridiculous robot designs.

For Triple Play we considered a speed bump robot that fell and consumed the entire side between 2 of the tetras, and had an "Arm of God" to reach the automated loading zone and stack the tetras on most of the field.

To Aim High, we thought about a pneumatic cannon like a student on our team builds for fun, sadly custom pneumatics weren't allowed.

Rack and Roll we wanted a plate of suction cups to stick to the alliance station wall then lift our bot and 2 other robots up off the ground scoring points for all three robots... rules again got in the way.

This year the worst thing we were thinking about was a robot that turned by banking using pneumatic pistons. There was also another to attach to the center of the field, and run through the divider really fast crossing both finish lines.
