Re: Team 121 Teaser Video

Do you guys usually finish this quickly? Being done 3 weeks in is pretty ridiculous. I bet your programmers are loving life right about now

I can't wait to see what ridiculous hybrid modes you guys come up with. Great job!

No this is very unusual for us. If you look at http://www.joemenassa.com and http://americanrobot.rhodewarrior.org/ you can see that usually this time we are still building the main frame.

Somewhat, there will be a touch sensor that will determine if the ball is slipping out, and will pull it back in.

Re: Team 121 Teaser Video

heh...it looked like it was turning just because it might slip out otherwise.

Must be a tricky balance trying to keep the claw grippy enough to hold on to the ball, yet slick enough that it will pull the ball in.

we're hoping not to. the ball backdrives the motor a bit and can still come out. the material on the "tusks" (as we call them) and on the wheels is a weather stripping and is somewhat grippy, though the ball still slips a bit too much for our liking, so we're looking into that. luckily we still have some time left before ship. there will eventually be some sort of proximity/touch sensors on the tusks at various points to give us more ball control.

Very nice robot...was just wondering if the bumpers will get in the way? Have you tried it with those yet?

Our side bumpers won't extend the entire side lengths of the robot, nor will be in the front, since they would interfere with ball pickup.

Re: Team 121 Teaser Video

Amazing design guys, motivated my team to get their butts off the computers and into the shop.

and I can't describe how happy I am to see that we don't have to lose miserably to you guys in any of our regionals.
