Our first robot
2012 Rebound Rumble (2012)
Ctrl-Z had much fun constructing this robot for the 2012 FRC season, Rebound Rumble. It drove on a 6 wheel tank, shooting balls into one of four baskets on the field. It would drive over a basketball and immediately intake it using a vertical belt that filled the entire backside of the robot. The ball would then fall into a half PVC pipe and a piston would shoot it out. In order to manuever over the balance scale, an arm on the robot would push it down and drive over.
