Spatula Bot
After winning the Dover Air Force base regional we found the over the back scoring method to be very effective and simple. However we decided that we wanted to carry many more game pieces. After watching some of the New Zealand world championships we knew exactly how we wanted to do it. We recently made a flipper to intake the sacks into our original spatula.
We tested the robot today and it was able to score 15 sacks at once without any surgical assist.
Tuesday night we plan on completely re-wiring the robot and changing some code.
Shelf Bot
Our shelf bot won the Delaware County Christian School scrimmage after getting shut down by our spatula bot at Dover. They took advantage of a win and the new experience with their scissor lift to improve it greatly.video here http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10102003960399228
Freshman Bot
Our freshman made successful robot placing in the semi-finals at the Delaware County Christian School scrimmage. They have been using a chain bar arm with a leg wheel intake. Their best strategy was the successful "gold sack strategy" where they got the gold sacks all over the field as fast as they could and scored them.
There will be new posts more frequently now that we have more changes going on.
