If you look very closely at the tread or the bogey wheels, you will see that the tread is internally guided by tabs on the tread and slots in the wheels. I think it could even survive Dean Kamen's driving unlike lil' MOE.

I'm stunned guys, this is beautiful!

You guys over there at MOE have done it again. I absolutely love it, great job to you whole team and best of luck in competition.

very impressive: nice arm design, nice color and niiice name. looking forward to being aquainted with moebius @ Philly.

I just wanted to say your swiveling arm loader mechanism is brilliant, if it does what I assume it does. That looks like the most effective hoarding robot I've seen yet. I would love to see some video.

[Mike Ciance]

this looks like one vicious offensive robot. you could have the game won and that thing can take it away in no time at all. i can hear the screams now... "COVER MOE!!!! MOE IS ABOUT TO TAKE THE CORNER!!!! BLOCK HIM!!!! BLOCK HIM!!!!! HE'S GOING FOR THE OTHER CORNER, GET OVER THERE!!!!!"

[DarkJedi613]

Looks great! I guess I should have expected it to be bright green. and I guess we'll be saying you at Philly again.

Now that MOEbius's specs are posted on the Miracle Workerz (award winning) website, what do you think? Will it do well in competition?

how high can you stack

I am not positive, and because the rest of the team is at the Pitt. Regional this weekend, they can't confirm this, but...

We can stack 4 (count'em 1,2,3,4) tetras at a time, but the highest we can stack on the central goal is 8, with our <=4 tetras + the <= 4 tetras already on the goal.

As far as i know this is accurate.


As roughly concluded in another thread, speed in more important than height when capping\stacking, and MOEbius is fast, agile, precise, and reliable, so I feel MOE and our robot MOEbius will do well this season.

[Mr.G]

Very nice and simple design. Look like you guys covered all the ways to get tetras and score.

Good Luck.

[Kevin Kolodziej]

Can I have it?????






No...seriously...you think I'm joking...

Can't wait to see it in action. Great Job!

[Mr MOE]

In response to the questions about our exposed treads, we are working on a modification for our first regional.

MOEbius and proud parents, MOE 365, are looking forward to seeing you at at Pittsburgh, Philly, and Atlanta.

Robot specs will be posted on our website www.moe365.org either Sunday or Monday.

Enjoy the competitions everyone!

P.S. Pete, bring a cup to Philly and MOEbius will fill it up with Gatorade!

[J_Horning]

Moebius was the most awesome robot at the Pittsburgh Regionals! No one could match their autonomous! They even kept stacking when in the end zone at the end of the match!!!

We were so excited to be chosen as their defense in the tournament. Beware the refs. I think Pittsburgh refs are not used to as tough a game as is played in other venues. We expect lots rougher play in Cleveland.

Good luck to Moe in Philly!!!!

I feel very slow...how does the claw/stacking part work?
