9605A and 9421 are proud to present our Robot in 3 Days: Houdini Specs: -4 motor 5:3 3.25" 200rpm Drive -1 motor 200rpm Side Rollers -1 motor 100rpm Cube Tube -1 motor 1:7 100rpm DR4B -1 motor 1:15 100rpm 4-Bar
I like the idea for putting the cubes in the scoring zone by moving the arm forward with the 4 bar pusher but did you try making the cube tube move forward instead like the meta bot of in the zone intakes.
Yang Zhao “this team” is actually 2 teams, one of which (9605A) won many competitions and has now graduated and is moving to VexU. The other (9421) is going to be a great competitor this year!
Do you chain your drive base to the 4 bar used to deposit the cube? if not then 1 motor on one side powers the 4 bar but is there anything chained to the other side?
Pandaman Inventor the “cube suction thingies” (aka siderollers) are chained together, which means there’s only 8 motors. There is a motor distribution at the end of the video.
@@brianboxell OK. Our design is somewhat similar minus the mobile goal lift with a lift on top, so I was trying to see how that would work out on ours since we aren't building for a few more weeks
Mark Luo we did not stack them per se, we just wanted to take the shot of it for the reveal so we loaded the cubes into the robot by hand and then drove up to the scoring area and stacked them. Then I ended up cropping those videos in editing to fit the music better.
@@user-xr6fg2yq9b Yeah, they have a motor that seems to open up the cage, retracting the passive and the guides which allows the cubes to slip out, and for the robot to drive back and release the cubes. Btw - where are you from? It doesn't seem like English is your first language.
Random Person Thanks! We intended for this robot to be an incredibly complex, sort of a joke robot, but by the end we all think that it is actually a pretty good robot. We especially think that the design can be taken and improved on to be very competitive!
Erick Osorio I don’t speak Spanish well, but it theoretically does fit in the 18”. There are 2 c-channels in the back that need to be cut that we did not feel like cutting.
Mark Luo theoretically a documentary is being produced but the person who is supposed to be doing it isn’t making much progress. I know we filmed close ups of the passive intake parts that grab the cubes.
