10 Balls. 1 Second. Team 100.

As soon as you line up with a robot during competition and fire, the announcer and the crowd are going to go nuts. $10 bucks says you will be the crowd favorite. AWESOME job you guys.

[Ben Martin]

That was really intense, good job. What material are you using for your shooter roller?

[Ice Berg]

It looks like you guys tilt the back of the conveyor to disengage the balls from the conveyor, then rev the conveyor to full speed so that the motors can accelerate under no-load and then reengage to shoot them out. I love the design!

[Boydean]

Wait, what. I had to watch that three times before fully comprehending what was going on. Great job!

If only you'd come to Sac-Town...

I can see it now, you guys following us around slowly filling our trailer with that amazing turret. Then in the last second of the match, POW we score. Perfect 100-100 tie

That comes next. We're mounting a small lead-screw powered by a RS-545 to tilt the hood back and forth.

I'm not so big on the automatic part. I don't have much faith in programming, or cameras. We shall see.

Yup. By tilting it back we also engage our hopper, allowing the magazine to be HP loaded.

OMG! and here I thought wed do good this year. Strike that idea.

Pure Win
Epic Win

Im crying Im so petrified

[synth3tk]

No words, no.... words.... can describe how I'm feeling right now. All I can say is, I will be glued to my computer screen watching every single match you guys play in this season.

Very good job, keep up the great work!

[115inventorsam]

Wow...I'm definitely scared. That robot's a beast! And the worst part, we gotta go up against them at SVR AND Davis!

Looks like we got some work to do, but I think we could match that if we really want to. Hmm....

[teampronto]

Ladies and Gentlement. We have a winner.

[Tottanka]

If that video is not a single success, but just one shot of a long string of successful attempts, i'm glad to be as far away as possible from that thing, and hope that Israel is far enough.

Congratulations on an amazing and an original design! Can't wait to see it in action...

[Herodotus]

Very impressive, very impressive indeed. You guys are definitely going to be one of the teams to watch out for this year. Not to mention you have a really awesome and elegant design.

[Elgin Clock]

What kind of mechanism do you have to keep the balls in the holding area as you take some more off the floor?
I guess my real question is how many times a match will you be able to load 10 & actually shoot ten at a time?
Also, are you using the camera to target the goal, or just dead reckoning with a perfect line of sight to the goal?

That is in impressive in any case, I just am wondering how feasible it will be during a match to get 10 balls in there & score all ten.

[Blackstarr904]

O.O

*thanks god that 904 is a midwest team*

that is awsome... i would love to see that in action.

[GaryVoshol]

Whoa. Really making the scorer's job hard, aren't you!

[Pat Arnold]

I love your bot & especially watching it score an insane number of moon rocks in a blast. If this video is any indication, I don't think you'll have to worry about scoring any stink'n supercells!
