Skills Challenge Results
Tournament Results
This was our very first competition, and we won the Judges Award!
​
Robot Features
At first, we did not have much experience designing robots, so we looked at other teams' designs for ideas. We based the arm on the University of Kentucky's starter bot arm. Our chassis is similar to the Super ClawBot design, but we added 2 more motors to make it more powerful. Our claw is a larger version of the original claw from the ClawBot. And we had an original linear track motion design for the scoop to lift up the mobile goals.
Our robot could stack up to 5 cones on the mobile goals and move them into any scoring zone. For the tournament, we also had a 15 second long autonomous code to score 10 points, but it was actually longer than 15 seconds and could not complete the action on time.
