First: What is the angle of incline on your ramps?

not sure but in the region of 21 degrees

4 wheel drive
1 cim per wheel
pnuematic casters for easy turning

Third: It seems like you can score on all 3 levels, but how easy is it to score on them (especially the middle one, based on your rendering, unless it has one last pivot that I am not seeing, it seems that may be most difficult).

there is no pivot, but we can score on all three easily

Fourth: Which side do you pick up ringers from? (the side with the ramps or without?)

the side without

Fifth: Does anything protect your arm device from being hit by robots coming onto your ramps?

not much besides the supports and the driver's ability to stop their robot

Sixth: How long does it take for you to deploy your ramps?

less than 5 seconds probably about 3ish

released by a pnuematic latch and then gravity and some help from surgical tubing
