Well I'm excited to see that 1 RP Auton for sure.
It looks like you guys have a turret that just streams out balls.

I don't think there is enough time to do that.

It all depends how you've designed your robot. I'm extremely confident that it is possible. By no means will every team be able to pull it off, but if you designed with a 40kpa auto in mind, it is most definitely possible.

It's gonna take minimum 8 seconds just to count the balls. That leaves just 7 seconds to drive to the hopper and get the balls, I will be extremely surprised if anyone manages it solo

You don't have to have scored all 40 balls for it to start counting, you just need to start scoring by second 7. There is a hopper located roughly 10 feet away from a legal starting point very close to the goal. This is clearly a possible task this year, one that I expect several top tier robots to have designed around.

Keep in mind you can also score your starting 10, then go get 30 more while those are counting...

Like I said it will be extremely shocking to see one team do it in auto. At 90% accuracy you would need to shoot 45 balls in 15 seconds, roughly 3bps for the entire auto period, Not accounting for any drive time

If you take 5 seconds to drive, get the balls, and re-align and begin shooting you are looking at under 10 seconds to shoot 45 balls and make every single one. Which now leaves you with almost the exact time that it takes for the boiler to count all the balls.

It's possible enough that great teams will make it happen.

I'll believe it when I see it. I still stand by that a solo robot won't be able to pull it off

Re: pic: 3641 Teaser

I would say that the 40 fuel auton is slightly easier than the 2 ball auto was last year, and we saw more than a few teams get that done.

I would argue that the difference between 40 fuel auton and 2 ball is that 2 ball could be done without any major mechanical design changes. This might require that, depending on how your robot is already setup.
