It looks like your 02 bot, in fact if i look close enough i see a seat motor on this robot too. So from looking at the "duplicate" similarities i would say this is your 2002 robot.

Is that a Pratt & Whitney logo I spy on your end effector?

That remains to this day one of my favorite robots ever.

Watch the KSC finals from 2002 and be in awe.

Re: pic: SPAM's 2005 robot?

what im assuming is they are going to be using a very similar design... they will have 2 arms, and one arm is the same as thier one on thier 2002 bot which can grap tetras from any place and another which can score them... simple enough =P

Is it sad that I can't remember this robot at all, but when I saw the arm I said to myself, "hey, that's from 2002!"?

Re: pic: SPAM's 2005 robot?

This picture has nothing to do with our robot this year. I just thought it would be nice to see Fluffy again. I knew Fluffy was popular, but not that popular. You all spotted it right away. I just came across that picture while uploading the old photos to the gallery on our website.

I did photoshop the pic a little. I covered up the team number on the yellow shirt. It is someone from another team. I was trying to make it look like a recent pic, but I did a terrible job.

Well lets see what Gary has left for me this time with this picture...

Its FLUFFY... one of the coolest robot I have seen FIRST...

... now for clues... I am assuming that SPAM is going back to their tank tread tradition with 3 speed drivetrain. For mechanisms, clues are yet to come.

Re: pic: SPAM's 2005 robot?

Then why post it as a 'teaser' picture? This is why people are getting annoyed with everyone and why there have been 2 threads about teaser pics.

Also, if you knew it was your 2002 robot, then it should go in the 2002 category. It has nothing to do with '05, so it shouldn't be in there.

Re: pic: SPAM's 2005 robot?

I didn't think everyone would get it that fast. It wasn't meant to be a teaser picture, it was meant to see how fast people would recognize Fluffy.
