Posted by Ken Leung on 2/14/2001 5:15 AM EST:



: I've been looking at lots of pictures of other robots, and they don’t seem to me that many of them are particularly built for balancing the bridge.

: I mean, I saw a few other robots doing it, such as Wildstang's robot... but most other robot seems to concentrate on grabbing goals or big balls or going under the bar.

: Is it that easy to balancing the bridge using just the drive train? Am I missing something about the bridge that makes it easy?

: So, my main question is, are there any robot out there specifically built a device that will help balancing the bridge (beside just the drive train)?


We took our robot out to our playing field and were able to balance our robot and two goals on the ramp without the help of any extra devices. The ramp reaches a natural balnce on the 4x6 once you reach an equilibrium. If we can cut enough weight, we are working to add some "special" equipment that will make us even more consistant. Check out the pictures of our robot on our site with the link below.
