Re: Robot Names
2009: Otis - in honor of Elisha Otis, of elevator fame. So named because of our ball elevator. The ball collector was "Hoover"
2010: Tommy - As in "Pinball Wizard". So named because of the plunger device in the ball kicker and the way our kicker "foot" resembles a bumper on a pinball machine. The mechanism that charges the kicker, fires it, releases the lift cable/mast and drives the winch (four separate functions) is the "Quadrophenia Device". However, once we installed the roll cage it got a second nickname - the Crusty Crab. There is a picture in "Robot Showcase" under "1918 NC Gears Week 5 Pictures" |
