Ri3D 2019 - Robot Reveal 

I love that HAB mechanism, I'm shocked the robot could be supported by just those two cylinders holding it in place.

Wow... Seeing the scale of the 3rd tier relative to the bot really makes it seem less daunting

You guys did a really great job this year. That bot looks amazing!

This is incredible!! Keep up the great work

Incredible robot! Well done on the climbing mechanism.

this is absolutely stunning!

Amazing! Good luck this year!

Flipping Awesome!

I love the HAB climber, but the actual HAB material will be much more slippery than plywood. I'd make sure it works anyways.

The 2 EZ on the bottom is a nice touch.

Love the climber. Well done

FYI: It states in the rules that you can not grip onto any part of the field. That means that the level 3 climb is illegal.

Way cool!

Amazed by the Velcro idea. My team is using suction cups

Your robot is SOOOOOOO COOL

Wow, that's impressive, half those student are mentors

And then that climb evolved into the famous succ climb

Awesome bot! You guys are inspiring. What motors did you use for your cargo roller intake?

what the heck how did you do that in 3 days

I love the system you use when you climb. I was wondering if it is a legal system though. According to 5.3 section 2 2. the ROBOT is only supported by: o surfaces of the HAB at or above that Level, o ALLIANCE WALL, and/or o another ROBOT which has climbed to that HAB Level or higher Would this be considered "surfaces of the HAB at or above the Level." just seeing if there was and insight on this.

Can I have the cad files?

Awesome machine! Do you guys know what caused that bent wheel at the end?

Noice

What the gear ratio on the motors for the spinner

I thought the rulebook mentions that for the hab to count your bumpers have to be fully within the hab

I'd be curious to know how far that climbing arm extends, it looks a lot longer than 30in.

Can you put balls into 3rd level of the rocket?

Will you guys actually compete? Cause u seem like older than high school students Edit: no offense, lol, but your robot seems amazing and you built it in just a week

Is it going to score on the hab? Aren't you overhanging to much?

Quick question what motors and gearing are u using to lift on the HAB?

Serious question, what's the purpose of this robot? Is it for a competition?

Do you guys have any CAD models for the public?

GG but can it do the level 2 hub if needed?

Does that mechanism at any point go father than 30 inches outside the frame? Of so according to rules update 3, it would then be illegal. It doesn't look like it but I just want to make sure.

For getting on the had i dont think it would work since dosent your robot have to be like sitting up

How does it pick up cargo from the floor?

Are those talons connected straight to the pwm?

how 's that have anything to do with snow tho? its an awesome robote but it doesn,t look like it would operate well on snow

What is the name in reference to?

is that velcro on the side of the level 3 platform? I dont think that is on the field.

How much does your robot weight?

Does you robot release the platform at the end of climb or else it isnt level 3 climb as per frc-qa.firstinspires.org/qa/50

Stingbots

But will it work in match? Probably not as expected

#FirstRobotics in 6 weeks is better!

A robot is a machine - especially one programmable by a computer - capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically. Robots can be guided by an external control device, or the control may be embedded within. Robots may be constructed to take on human form, but most robots are machines designed to perform a task with no regard to how they look. Robots can be autonomous or semi-autonomous, and range from humanoids, such as Honda's Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility (ASIMO), and TOSY's TOSY Ping Pong Playing Robot (TOPIO), to industrial robots, medical operating robots, patient assist robots, dog therapy robots, collectively programmed swarm robots, UAV drones (such as General Atomics MQ-1 Predator), and even microscopic nano robots. By mimicking a lifelike appearance or automating movements, a robot may convey a sense of intelligence or thought of its own. Autonomous Things are expected to proliferate in the coming decade, with home robotics and the autonomous car as some of the main drivers. The branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing, is robotics. These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or resemble humans in appearance, behavior, or cognition. Many of today's robots are inspired by nature, contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics. These robots have also created a newer branch of robotics: soft robotics. From the time of ancient civilization there have been many accounts of user-configurable automated devices and even automata resembling animals and humans, designed primarily as entertainment. As mechanical techniques developed through the Industrial Age, there appeared more practical applications, such as automated machines, remote-control, and wireless remote-control. The term comes from a Czech word, robota, meaning "forced labor"; the word 'robot' was first used to denote a fictional humanoid in the 1920 play R.U.R. by the Czech writer, Karel Čapek, but it was Karel's brother, Josef Čapek, who was the word's true inventor. Electronics evolved into the driving force of development with the advent of the first electronic autonomous robots, created by William Grey Walter in Bristol, England in 1948, as well as Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine tools in the late 1940s, by John T. Parsons and Frank L. Stulen. The first commercial, digital and programmable robot was built by George Devol in 1954 and was named the Unimate. It was sold to General Motors in 1961, where it was used to lift pieces of hot metal from die casting machines at the Inland Fisher Guide Plant, in the West Trenton section of Ewing Township, New Jersey. Robots have replaced humans in performing repetitive and dangerous tasks which humans prefer not to do, or are unable to do because of size limitations, or which take place in extreme environments, such as outer space or the bottom of the sea. There are concerns about the increasing use of robots and their role in society. Robots are blamed for rising technological unemployment as they replace workers in increasing numbers of functions. The use of robots in military combat raises ethical concerns. The possibilities of robot autonomy and potential repercussions have been addressed in fiction and may be a realistic concern in the future.
