Re: 2594 Robot Preview
Very nice! What kind of motors will be driving those blue brushes? I'd like to hear more about the delivery system. Its a well professional looking robot, and I like the drive train as well.

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
The blue brushes will be driven by the DENSO (window motors). As for the delivery system we don't have any finalized choice, but we have a few working ideas.

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
Does each pair of brushes spin independently? Or some as pairs? Or all together? Looks great!!!

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
The top three brushes and the bottom three brushes work as groups each run by its own DENSO. The top three will be trigger operated.

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
Yah, the brush system was one of the easier parts to design/build. The drivetrain was a monster... Just so you know, Van Tassel didn't mention it is 4-wheel drive, AND 4-wheel steering... Here is a pic that is a little closer in so that you can see, as you can tell it isn't fully assembled at this point, it was a few weeks ago. We are using that mount right there to pivot the two tierods that attach to the custom wheel brackets.

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
Beautiful design, I love both the drivetrain and the manipulator system!
One thing, I hate asking this question, but how are you mounting bumpers? |

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
Although it looks very difficult with the drivetrain we actually have bumper brackets planned that should work, but not physically there yet...

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
I can't wait to see a video or two of this bot moving and shooting. Coming from a second year team, I am highly impressed.

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
I actually have multiple videos that i have taken off of cameras and cell phones. They are just of the robot driving though. The thing is that I don't know how to get them onto the site, or youtube. I need some help with that, if someone can help me convert formats or something like that I can get them up. Especially if you know how to get videos off of phones...

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
That is beyond sick.
That is perhaps one of the most unique and aesthetically pleasing designs I've ever seen. Good Job! |

Re: 2594 Robot Preview
I really advise you guys to take a look at all the Bumper threads and read them in detail. The rules are still confusing for a lot of teams. Looking at your frame you are going to need some serious thinking about how you are going to comply with the bumper rules. Good Luck!
