What we built: Our robot is made up of three main systems: intake, shooter, and drive train. Our intake is in the shape of an inverted wedge to help with defenses like the rock wall and the ramparts. It is run by two rollers and poly-chord running between to suck up the ball. The shooter is powered by two CIM motors and 4 inch wheels. The drive chains is run by chain and pneumatically shifting gearboxes powering 6 pneumatic wheels.
We bagged and tagged the robot at 11:56pm 02/23/16
