Two big honkin' Electro-magnets!

Probablly the coolest thing in this year's robot is the robot functions. It actually THROWS the ball like a "over-the-head pass" in soccer, instead of pushing or rolling the ball over the overpass. and it's not a shooter.

The use of Juggling rings as our gripper.

Our coolest thing was definitely our independent suspensions. We only did this because we used mecanum wheels this year. Each suspension was extremely easy to detach which made quick repairs a breeze. It really helped when I decided to crash our robot into the block at the end of the lane dividing wall, as shown in picture 2. These suspensions also helped us win the Rockwell award.

Our upside down rear bumper.

And our cast aluminum roller claw wheels cast in the shop's foundry using the accumulated scrap from team machining mistakes - they live on to serve a useful purpose. Huzzah.

I remember seeing that coaching 195 that match.

the worm gears to raise the arm or.....the dong!

I would have to say besides our drivesystem, it would defintely be the kicker underneath the claw that we used to kick the ball foward over the overpass, it was shaped like a high heel and was just a comical/cool looking part of the robot.

our linkage drive! Pretty much for how new of a system it is, it kept up with everyone on the field (it even matched 1114 for some of the time )


I love our linkage!!

Our team had a lot of random decals all over it this year, it was awesome. "Are you guys really sponsored by MAE?" That was the best line of the year I heard.

We may not have been able to do much, but this got a few laughs.

The coolest thing on our robot was the IR Control. We had the most powerful IR system in the world on our robot. We had complete control over the robots direction during hybrid and could consitanly get 4 Lines and sometimes a ball.
