Vibration Deadening Material?
Team 2144 is wondering if using a vibration/sound deadening material to reduce vibration on our robot would be legal? Specifically, we are thinking of Dynamat or Boommat or something similar. This would be applied to underside of large flat surfaces that resonate from our shooter motors.

Re: Vibration Deadening Material?
As long as it doesn't exceed the cost per single item rules and isn't hazardous in any way then it should be considered legal.

It seems like that would be OK. If it is not prohibited, it is generally allowed.

The best material IMO is the foam/gel-like mouse-pad. If you can find some of them, they are essentially designed for vibrations and eliminating deviations.

I have used sorbothane for projects that are not related to robotics, but it should work in those applications as well.

We use pool noodle scraps from our bumpers for vibration isolation.

Re: Vibration Deadening Material?
I was thinking about throwing some Dynamat on ours if we get an odd harmonic. Then I'll throw on some illegal speakers
![]() Parts-Express has some cheap vinyl-backed stuff, but it's nowhere near as good as Dynamat as far as adhesion goes. |
