Jaws is our second-year robot designed to compete as a Coral scoring Bot in the 2025 FRC game REEFSCAPE at the 2025 Colorado Regionals.  We started building at the beginning of January 

Specifications include:

• 6 4-inch billet wheel Tank Drive

• REV NEO 3-phase power motors

• REV VORTEX 3-phase power motors with integrated SPARK FLEX motor controllers

• 6 REV SPARK MAX motor controllers

• Weighs around 120 lbs

• Vivid hosting VH_109 Communications radio

• large arm for game-piece scoring

• Integrated Roborio circuit 

• pneumatic control system

How it works: 

On command from the operator, the robot takes a game piece into the manipulator on the arm. When the game piece is secure in the manipulator, the driver maneuvers the robot toward the scoring objective. When the robot approaches the goal, the driver will communicate the level (L1-L4) that they want to score, and then with that info, the operator will push the corresponding button on their controller and the arm will automatically move into the scoring position. Once the driver moves the robot into position, the operator will release the game piece onto the goal, and reset for another cycle.

THE WEDGE is our backup robot initially designed to compete in the 2025 Coronado High School scrimmage in Colorado Springs as an algae scoring and defense bot. Building started on February 20th and it was completed on February 21st.

Specifications include:

• 6 6-inch Andymark Hi-Grip wheel Tank Drive

• Standard CIM 2-phase power motors

• REV VORTEX 3-phase power motors with integrated SPARK FLEX motor controllers

• 4 REV SPARK MAX motor controllers

• Weighs around 80 lbs

• Vivid Hosting VH_109 Communications radio

• small pneumatic manipulator

• Integrated Roborio circuit 

• pneumatic control system

• New camera mast with RSL and a 720p webcam

How it works: 

This robot uses a single operator due to the surprisingly complex nature of its scoring mechanic. As of the current moment, THE WEDGE is unable to score during autonomous. after the autonomous period, the driver maneuvers towards an algae. Once next to it, they drop the arm and quickly engage the intake motor, lifting the algae off the ground and into the perimeter of the bot. the driver then maneuvers over to the processor and lifts the arm. scoring an algae in the processor. the driver then repeats this process.
