The five parts of the robot.

Design approaches and manufacturing methods will be shared here and in the dev log as the design progresses.
  1. Chassis and suspension

    Mecanum wheels let the robot slide in any direction without turning its body; the suspension keeps the wheels in contact with the floor.

  2. Two-axis gimbal

    A turret that rotates horizontally and vertically to point the barrel at the target.

  3. Launcher and feeder

    Plastic projectiles from the hopper are fed into the barrel and launched.

  4. Armor panels

    The panels the opponent tries to hit; the referee system detects every hit on them.
