Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
That is a good point. So the question becomes, why even have the larger tube? Why not just attach the lexan to one length of the larger tube...?

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
I keep going back to this, but in 2008 with the Overpass, FIRST made connectors that would link two ends together, the connector would snap the two together. But the only problem is I don't see any inner connections making the smaller pipe a connector.
Being that it IS lexan... this can't support anything that would be in an extreme force environment. Maybe it's a ball shoot behind the driver station like 2006, but with less jams. I dont know about an auto loader. I thought that, but the lexan + speeding robot = *snap* It must be something robots don't come directly in contact with. |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
now here is a question, why is the top shaped the way that it is? Is it pushing or pullng something? It is pretty high compared to the rest of the assembly. and why the hole at the top? would it attach to some sort of backboard like in a basketball net?
It is also shaped like it could hold some sort of cylindrical prism. Remember the coke can from [BB]? http://frcdirector.blogspot.com/2009...o-do-with.html |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
I've already figured out the entire game from this picture, minus a few small details that I'm just going to extrapolate from previous years.
Starting work on our robot now... For those of you still working on it: the shadows are important, play with it in photoshop for a few hours... And what JVN said is really important to figuring the game out, just have to do a little research.. Good luck all, this is the most revealing hint FIRST has given yet. |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Also worth noting before I leave: What are the four holes in the actual lexan for?
1/4 lexan could probably take a few hits. I heard there's this one team that builds their frame out of it... crazy. Granted, unless there's a "slow down when approaching this item" rule, mandatory bumbers, and / or some other collision mechanism, there's pretty much a 1000% chance these could break in competition if they were an autoloader as we know them. Unless the whole assembly is mounted outside the field so only large arms could hit them... A quick play with the Hue / Saturation Photoshop sliders got me nothing you wouldn't expect with the reflection. I wouldn't try it. Last edited by Chris is me : 24-12-2009 at 15:48. |

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
i know people have been saying that it is too weak for robots to handle, what if it was meant for the human player to push or pull *note the big handle on top

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
What if it holds a game piece at the beginning of a match like in 2004.

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
Intersting idea. But where is the lexan bent? Or is it attached to the tubes non perpendicularly? I can't seem to see either case in the picture.

Re: [BB] 2010 Game Hint #1
I really think that someone should play around with this on the technical side. Photoshop, encryption. Use your 2009 fish hint skills!!
Could someone explains what this means? I don't see any lean in the lexan... Is it leaning forwards? Or do you just mean the whole part is rotated for a diagonal view? |
