 Belts are a fine way of transferring power in a robot. Like chains, gears, drive shafts, viscous couplings or any other means of transmission they require some care and attention on you're part. But no one said this robot stuff was going to be a cake walk. - Andy A. [more] |

Re: Hybrid Challenge-No Robot Left Behind
One story of "no robot left behind".
At each regional we have helped several robot teams. At our last match at Bayou I visited our partners trying to make sure their auto mode would not run into us. Neither team had an auto mode so I sent our lead programmer to work with them. He got both of them going with a basic go straight and make 4 points after a three second delay. Both of their auto modes worked each getting 4 points. They were excited because it was the first time they had an auto mode that worked. As it turned out we won by 6 points and without their 8 points we would have lost. That win ended putting us in the top 8 and allowed us to pick our partnership. So it was a win for all!
