Re: pic: Team 254 Teaser #3

I'm going to say that it might be a shooter. You can't see anything behind the shirt (or the student), but somehow, I think that's intentional.

Re: pic: Team 254 Teaser #3

I finally figured out what "simulation mode" means - it means your bot is currently simulating frame members that satisfy R08-M. Nyuk nyuk.

It also seems that Ron Weasley in the ThunderChickens shirt is doing a spot-on impersonation of "the usual" Paul Copioli facial expression.

Hey Cory,
Can you update the pic without the blue shirt?


Thanks,
Glenn

At first glance, I thought I saw a tall shooter robot right above the person with the ThunderChicken's shirt on.

That would be our 2001 robot. We plan to put more on the walls, as it provides a good display area while staying out of the way.

It's sitting in the corner waiting to be sheared to allow the correct border around the outposts and fueling stations.

Re: pic: Team 254 Teaser #3

When I first read the rules I was dissapointed to find out that we would no longer get to see the new things 254 did to their wheels. Looking forward to hearing about your robot from team members who show up at your scrimmage.


"Team 846 needs a pair of 54 wheels, preferrably in the chrome model...again that's 2 54 wheels for 846."

I never thought I would see 254 with a "wide" robot

How about taking that t-shirt off the bot?

See you guys in San Jose!

I'm not exactly sure removing the t-shirt would tell you anymore about "our" robot.

Re: pic: Team 254 Teaser #3

Hmm... I'm going to take a wild stab at guessing what's going on here. I see a touch of a mechanism at the top, and a massive hopper with collector at the bottom; however I don't see any belts in between them. (I guess one could be hidden by the guy at the front, but it'd be a pretty small conveyor) So here is my shot in the dark: the robot human and ground loads (based on the position of the t-shirt it looks like an open top) to fill up a huge hopper for a power dumper. The floor of the hopper is actuated upwards to bring the balls into contact a roller at the top that spits out balls until the hopper is empty. I'll guess capacity at 40-50 balls and dumping speed at 8balls/sec. Am I close?
