Alright i thought i would post pictures/videos i took of our robot the other day i pretty much got most of it except i didnt get the video of it lifting a kid in our class (he weighed around 140)
o and this is all taken with my phone so sorry for the bad quality
It would seem alot harder to drive onto the two forks than it would a platform. And with our design, I wouldn’t want the forks on the other areas underneath our bot.
one of the things that you may have a problem with would be the fact that all the other robots have to have the same width and wheel base as your forklifting mechanism
i like the height that your arm can reach, it’s very good.
oh and one more thing.
if you guys are testing the robot’s manuverability on a basketball court, you aren’t going to get the same response as if you were to test it on carpet because the arena is carpeted
if you look at it there are like a dozen holes so we can move the widths of the forks and also if u look at the video of us driving we have some carpet for practice but it was just for testing
Did you try scoring with the forklift? You might have some issues with your tube-handling device, it looks like it could run into the spider leg disc when you try to put the tube over it.
