Is that severed hand legal? I think it's a COTS assembly from previous years.

I'm also confused - I see three possible orbit-ball-pick-up methods there.

Looks spiffy!

[Molten]

What about a team 47 teaser? jk

Seriously though, looks awesome. Kind of wonder what's with the anonymity though. Oh well, good job whoever you are.

[Alex Cormier]

Hmm. Reminds of the 1126 robot from 2006. I can't wait to learn who this is.

[Elgin Clock]

This looks strikingly similar (albeit, upgraded a bit) to the Team 236 'bot from 2002:

I'll throw my guess in the hat here, & say it's Team 236.

This looks really familiar to me.

Well, it can't be a RAGE bot since it's not made out of wood, so maybe it's a 195 or 999 bot Jeff? I know you have inside info with them nowadays.

I wish I had inside info from them. Now that you mention it, I should do some grilling to try and get info.

Yeah, but it probably isn't a 330 machine. They don't build in living rooms, not last I checked.

O_o

Living room?? I wish my living room had what looked to be a lathe in it. (right under the hand with the wedding ring on it - looks like the dials from a lathe & a shield over it above that - maybe a CNC lathe with a splash window for the cleaning fluid??).
IMHO, that is too industrial looking to be a living room.


Anyways, all we have to do is find what teams have people who work in room with a tile ceiling, & who have married team members on them...
Shouldn't be too hard.

Or whatever has that window in the back left. All I really know is, 330 hasn't built in that type of shop for years if ever. The one place I can think of that would fit would be a sponsor's shop, but the lathes there aren't by the windows.

I am thinking a school shop setting due to the E-stop circuit in the background on the right side of the picture. Makes it even easier to find the proper team.

[Enigma's puzzle]

I am puzzled what difference does it make if we know what team it is if we know what the robot looks like?

I mean unless it is some world class team giving away there world class design, i have a feeling we aren't seeing one of the "classical" powerhouse teams for example 111, but it looks like it may have the makings to be a pretty good bot.

This teaser is probably the best picture of there robot with giving the least amount of information on their strategy. An Enigma, i like that

Not saying it was a 330 robot, and I wouldn't expect 330 using a "bolt together" frame, sheet metal spiral, or cantilevered "west coast drive" set up...

I am not trying to insult the "anonymous teaser" robot, bolt together frames work fine, and i LOVE the "west coast drive" set up, but it just doesn't seem 330 to me.
(and ya, the shop doesn't look like a supermarket... lol)
